{"product_id":"tangerine-pu-erh","title":"Tangerine Pu-erh Tea | 小青柑","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTangerine Pu-erh tea（小青柑 - xiao qing gan, or lit. \"Little Green Tangerine\") is a combination of pu-erh fermented tea that has been stuffed into the hollowed out husks of tiny tangerines, and then left to age so that the two ingredients marry to create a refreshing twist on traditional pu-erh tea.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis creation came about because both pu-erh tea and tangerine peels (陳皮 - chenpi) are known to get better with age. They become more fragrant, stronger tasting, and take on a deeper, bittersweet aftertaste the longer they are stored. This makes the tangerine pu-erh the perfect pairing, since the end result will carry the deep, earthy taste of pu-erh, complemented by the bright, citrus scent of tangerine peels. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis variety of tangerine pu-erh features a baked tangerine husk. As opposed to sun-drying the husk, the aroma and flavors are locked in by quickly when dehydrating the husk through baking. This helps the final product retain a fresh and zesty tangerine taste, whereas the sundried varietal is smoother in comparison. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBoth are delicious in their own right.
