Purple Cane celebrates its 33rd anniversary with a commemorative tea cake made with Dian Qing, literally Yunnan Green. It is produced and shaped in the traditional way following a stringent process. It is named Gengyun Hao with reference to the year of Gengzi according to the Chinese lunar calendar.
The raw ingredient of "Gengyun Hao" is the spring harvest of tealeaves originating from the Menghai tea area of Xishuangbanna, Yunnan. Only carefully selected leaves were blended and steam-pressed into tea cakes of 357g each.
It yields a brisk golden infusion with a gentle but bright aroma and layered, full-bodied flavour.
Purple Cane launched "Gengyun Hao" in 2020 to celebrate years of hard work, and to reinforce its commitment to promoting a life of tea enjoyment.
Brewing Hints
Break off a well-sized portion of tea leaves from the tea cake, add to brewing vessel until ¼ filled. Pour in freshly boiled water at 85°C-95°C and drain the tea infusion immediately. 1st brew is not for drinking, the purpose is for the tea leaves to unfurl and moisten. This helps release the full flavour of tea for a satisfying brew.
