This is a tea of legendary origin and unparalleled complexity. Sourced from wild, ancient tea trees approximately 600 years old, growing in remote, high-altitude forests of Yunnan above 2000 meters. These extreme conditions—a pristine environment, sharp temperature shifts, and mineral-rich soil—forge a flavor profile of exceptional vibrancy, saturation, and natural purity.
The taste unfolds in captivating waves: it begins with ripe dark cherry, berry compote, and a soft floral honey. This evolves into layers of orchid, dried apricot, warm cocoa notes, and a delicate woody sweetness. The finish is remarkably long, clean, and slightly mineral, carrying the inherent sweetness of these ancient trees.
The aroma is deep and enveloping: mountain forest flowers, warm alpine air, and a light woodiness.
The effect is as profound as its flavor. This tea provides an invigorating and energetically rich experience. It warms the body, elevates vitality, improves mood, and grants a clear-minded, joyful clarity without any harsh stimulation. It is a tea that inspires and bestows a deep sense of internal composure and uplift.
Brewing Recommendation to Explore its Depth:
  • Water Temperature: 95–98 °C (203–208 °F)
  • Tea Amount: 4-5 grams per 150-200 ml
  • Steeping Time: First infusion: 15-20 seconds. This tea excels with multiple short steeps (Gongfu style); each infusion reveals a new facet of its complex profile. Gradually increase time.
A masterpiece of nature and craft, offering a journey in every cup.
