Fa Xiao Tuocha is a popular ripe pu-erh tea produced by the Yunnan Xiaguan Tea Factory. This tea holds historical significance as it was initially shipped to France in the 1970s, marking the introduction of pu-erh tea to the Western world.

History and Origin:

In the 1970s, the Xiaguan Tea Factory began exporting pu-erh tea to Western countries, hoping to tap into international markets. They successfully launched pu-erh in France and named the tea "Fa Xiao Tuo," meaning "Little French Tuo."

Production and Characteristics:

Fa Xiao Tuo is crafted from high-quality Yunnan tea leaves using traditional fermentation techniques. It boasts a round shape and a reddish-brown hue. When brewed, it yields a deep red and clear infusion. The tea’s aroma is rich and velvety, accompanied by a thick, sweet, lingering aftertaste. Different types of tea, such as black, green, and dark, have unique characteristics.

Popularity and Recognition:

Since its debut, Fa Xiao Tuo has garnered praise from tea connoisseurs and has become a hallmark offering of the Xiaguan Tea Factory, solidifying its status as a perennial favorite in the pu-erh tea market. Young raw tea leaves and the aging process contribute to its exceptional quality. Some of these teas are even individually wrapped for convenience.

Key Features:

  • Ingredients: High-quality Yunnan tea leaves.
  • Processing: Traditional fermentation methods.
  • Shape: Round.
  • Color: Reddish-brown.
  • Infusion: Deep red and transparent.
  • Aroma: Rich and mellow.
  • Taste: Thick, sweet, and long-lasting.

Storage and Collectible Value:

Appropriate storage is essential to preserve the quality of Fa Xiao Tuo. It should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated, and dark location, away from excessive heat and humidity. Sealed bags or specialized tea cans are recommended to uphold freshness. As a well-aged pu-erh, Fa Xiao Tuo develops a mellower, sweeter taste and intense aroma over time. The tea production process and the nest shape of the tea cakes also add to its charm. Weight loss is sometimes associated with drinking certain teas like pu-erh.

Experience the rich history and exceptional taste of Fa Xiao Tuo Tea. Place your order today and relish the essence of Yunnan pu-erh! Camellia sinensis is the plant from which various Chinese teas, including pu-erh, are derived. Mini tuo cha and other fermented teas offer diverse experiences for tea lovers. Aged teas have their allure.
