The Manoir Teapot

A deep, grounding tea for moments when you need to return to yourself.

Aged Sheng Pu-erh carries a quiet strength — it doesn’t rush or demand attention. It settles the nervous system and brings a sense of rooted presence.

Reach for it in the evening, after long days, or whenever you want to slow down without losing clarity.

Gongfu style (recommended):

5g in a 100–120 ml gaiwan or small teapot.

First rinse with hot water, then short infusions starting from 10–15 seconds.

Increase gradually.

Can yield 8–12 pleasant infusions.

Western style:

5g per 300–400 ml. 95°C. First steep 2–3 minutes. Subsequent infusions can be longer.

This tea rewards patience and attention. The flavour continues to open across infusions.

Deep, earthy, and woody with notes of aged forest floor, dried leaves, and subtle camphor.

Smooth mouthfeel with a clean, slightly sweet finish that lingers.

Over time in the cup it reveals more mineral and gentle medicinal tones.

A tea that feels grounded and mature rather than bright or sharp.
