Product line Connaisseur
A characterful post-fermented tea from Yunnan with a deep, earthy expression. Pu-Erh Mannong unfolds warm notes of damp earth, wood, and cocoa, with a soft, mature roundness that lingers.
After oxidation, the tea undergoes a controlled fermentation process that can take months to years. As it matures, sharp edges soften and a layered profile emerges, centered on depth and balance.

The Art of Aging
Mannong is not a style label but a place — a mountainous pocket of Yunnan where old tea trees, red-brown soil, and humid forest air set the pace. Tea doesn’t rush here. The leaf grows thicker, more aromatic, and naturally deeper, as if the landscape itself participates in the fermentation.
Pu-Erh Mannong is a story of time. After processing, the real transformation begins: microorganisms, humidity, and patience continue shaping the leaf. Sharp edges soften, earthy notes turn warmer and rounder, and beneath dark wood and cocoa tones a gentle sweetness starts to glow.
In the cup, Mannong feels like stillness. Not heavy, but grounded; not untamed, but mature. A tea you don’t drink in passing — it asks you to slow down, layer by layer, infusion by infusion.
