Our Story
Yunding (Cloud鼎) began in Xinhui, Guangdong — the home of chenpi, aged mandarin peel, prized in China for centuries. Our question was simple: what happens when the peel and the tea age together, not apart?
The answer is citrus pu'er: whole mandarins filled with Yunnan pu'er, then dried under the sun until peel and leaf become one flavour. The peel lends citrus oils and sweetness; the pu'er lends depth, earth and time.
Today the collection spans 24 teas — from a $12 tasting duo to a $2,939 limited Bingdao — all made the same slow way.
The Craft
No ovens. No forced heat. Only sun, air and patience.
STEP 01
Mandarins picked at the right ripeness — green, half-ripe or fully red — from core-region groves.
STEP 02
Each fruit is opened, emptied and filled with aged Yunnan pu'er, then closed by hand.
STEP 03
Fruit and tea dry together under the southern sun, turned by hand until the peel is firm and fragrant.
STEP 04
Resting in clean, dry storage. Peel and leaf keep exchanging flavour — the older, the softer and sweeter.
Brewing
Sachets: one 5 g sachet per 200 ml, steep 2–3 minutes. No teapot needed.
