An Lan Cha is an experimental pressed tea blend combining post-fermented tea and oolongs with aged ripe puer.
The aroma is full and fragrant. The taste is deep, bold and rich, with a steady balance between the aromatic character of the oolongs and the mature depth of ripe puer. The finish is layered and lingering.
This signature blend was created by Sergey Shevelev. It brings together tea materials from Guangdong, Fujian and Yunnan provinces in China.
The different teas are combined into a balanced blend and pressed into a 100 g brick. Each brick contains 12 break-off cubes weighing approximately 8 g each and was packed in November 2025.
