GanLiuXiang Xiao Qing Gan | 柑留香小青柑茶
Discover the unique harmony of nature with ChaDynasty's Xiao Qing Gan, a delightful blend that encapsulates the vibrant spirit of Guangdong and the timeless wisdom of Yunnan. Our founder, Sophia Yang, cherishes these small, naturally hollowed-out green mandarin oranges, meticulously filled with aged, ripe Pu'er tea leaves. This traditional craftsmanship allows the citrus's invigorating oils to slowly infuse with the earthy depth of the Pu'er, creating a tea experience that is both refreshing and profound. Each individual 'mini-cake' is a testament to the art of tea making, offering a convenient and exquisitely aromatic brew.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Xiao Qing Gan is appreciated for its capacity to regulate Qi, aid digestion, and resolve phlegm, making it a comforting choice, especially during colder months or after meals. It's a gentle warming tea, perfect for soothing the stomach and promoting overall well-being. Experience a ritual that connects you to generations of tea lore, shared with warmth from Sophia's collection.

Brewing Steps
- Place one whole Xiao Qing Gan into a gaiwan or small teapot.
- Rinse the tea briefly with hot water (around 95-100°C), discarding the rinse. This awakens the tea and cleanses the outer peel.
- Pour hot water (95-100°C) over the tea.
- Steep for 10-30 seconds for the first infusion, adjusting longer for subsequent brews.
- Enjoy multiple infusions, as the flavour evolves beautifully.
