Join the Tea Community

Our customers and tea friends often gather on The Tea Table, a tea community on Discord originally created by tea enthusiast Liquid Proust in 2020.

Inside the server, members discuss tea, share tasting notes, and help each other learn more about Chinese tea.

Some of our customers have also started a small OrientaLeaf corner there to chat about the teas they’re drinking. If you'd like to meet other tea drinkers and join the conversation, you're warmly welcome to join.

After you join the server, feel free to jump straight into our little corner HERE>>>

A generous 400 g Menghai Ripe Pu-erh that delivers rich cocoa-like depth, smooth sweetness, and exceptional value for your daily tea ritual.

A mid-aged, mellow yet full-bodied Ripe Pu-erh from Bulang Mountain—crafted for smooth daily drinking and rewarding long-term aging.

Spring Ming’s 2020 Ripe Pu-erh celebrates the time-honored craft of Menghai fermentation using first-grade Bulang Mountain big-leaf tea. Pressed into a traditional 400 g large cake, it was designed as the perfect “everyday companion” tea—affordable yet remarkably satisfying.

Open the wrapper and the dry leaves greet you with hints of sun-dried dates and antique cedar cabinets. Once infused, the liquor glows a deep chestnut-red, releasing a gentle cocoa-and-walnut aroma. Each sip unfolds silky sweetness, earthy warmth, and a lingering mineral freshness reminiscent of cool mountain spring water.

Balanced and durable, this cake offers 10+ infusions that stay flavorful and smooth. Stored properly, it will continue to deepen over the years—a Pu-erh that matures as gracefully as an old wine, rewarding both today’s tea sessions and tomorrow’s collection.
