Plucked in the early spring on a mountain in Fujian Province, this tea is one of the highlights of Chinese tea history. Only the unopened buds are plucked soon after they appear on the bush. These very tight and needle-like buds show just the right bit of natural oxidation. We think the plucking day was probably cloudy.

The liquor in the cup reflects this with its bold color and sweet, delicate flavor. This tea has a long finish with notes of honey.

Always make this tea in very small amounts and re-infuse it multiple times for the best experience.

I don't like green tea, but yours has changed my mind. By far, one of the best teas I've ever had....as are all your teas. Keep up the good work!

Your Black Tea with Bourbon is the best. I won’t drink anything else.

One evening after dinner with 3 of my friends, all doctors, we decided that your Blueberry Infusion is the healthiest concoction ever created, other than Bourbon of course. I'm including a tin of this in this years Christmas baskets for friends. Also I've baked muffins with it . OMG you've never had a blueberry muffin that good.
