Introduction:
This Hubei Dark Tea is meticulously selected from the autumn harvest of 2022. Plucked from high-altitude tea gardens in Zhaoliqiao Town, Hubei Province, it adheres to the plucking standard of one bud and three leaves. This tea is a type of Hubei Dark Tea known as "Mi Zhuan Cha" (Rice Brick Tea), renowned for its unique flavor profile. The tea liquor is rich and robust, with a slight initial bitterness that transforms into a lasting sweet aftertaste. It primarily exudes a floral and honey-like aroma, accompanied by a subtle aged fragrance.

Reasons to Recommend:

• Unique Raw Material: Mi Zhuan Cha is a specialty tea produced in Chibi City, Hubei Province, known as the "Hometown of Chinese Brick Tea." It is a compressed black tea made entirely from tea dust, which gives it the name "Rice Brick Tea."
• Distinct Appearance: The finished Mi Zhuan Cha is visually striking, with sharp edges, a smooth surface adorned with intricate patterns, and a glossy black brick color. When brewed, it produces a deep red liquor with a pure aroma and a rich, mellow taste.
• High-Mountain Tea Gardens: The tea trees grow at high altitudes, where significant daily temperature variations slow their growth. The abundant mist and moisture nourish the tea trees, enriching the leaves with nutrients and resulting in a tea with a robust flavor and strong aroma.

Introduction:
This Anhua Dark Tea is meticulously selected from the autumn harvest of 2021. Plucked from wild tea gardens in Anhua County, Hunan Province, it adheres to the plucking standard of one bud and three leaves. Recognized by the global tea and medical communities as one of the healthiest beverages of the 21st century, this tea exudes a unique pine smoke aroma when brewed, offering a pure, mellow, and sweet taste with a lasting aftertaste.

Reasons to Recommend:

• Special Processing Technique: Anhua Dark Tea undergoes a unique "wet piling" (wo dui) process twice—once during the initial processing of raw tea and again during the final product processing. This process utilizes the temperature and humidity of the tea leaves after fixation, allowing microorganisms in the air to interact with the leaves, resulting in the transformation of the tea's internal compounds.
• Premium Quality: This Anhua Dark Tea (Tianjian) is considered the finest variety available on the market and was historically treasured as a tribute tea for emperors.
• Unique Aroma: A special step in the production of Anhua Dark Tea is the "Seven Star Stove" roasting. During this process, pine wood is burned beneath the stove, and the pine smoke is channeled into the tea leaves, infusing them with a distinctive pine smoke aroma while drying.

Gardenia Black Tea captures the beauty of early summer, when fresh gardenia blossoms meet the rich sweetness of Yunnan black tea. Gardenia, a beloved traditional Chinese fragrant flower, is known for its pure, elegant aroma with a naturally refreshing character.

This tea begins with spring-harvested Dianhong from Fengqing, Yunnan, a black tea prized for its smooth texture and honey-like sweetness. Fresh June gardenia blossoms are carefully paired with the tea through three rounds of traditional scenting, allowing the flower’s graceful fragrance to gently blend into the warm, mellow tea base.

The result is a tea with a unique contrast of floral brightness and rich tea depth. The first impression is a fresh gardenia aroma, delicate yet captivating, like stepping into a garden in full bloom. As you sip, the smooth sweetness of Yunnan black tea unfolds, creating a balanced experience that is refreshing, comforting, and beautifully lingering.

This Winter harvest Ya Shi Xiang Dancong offers a uniquely soft and refreshing floral profile with a clean, cooling character rarely found in traditional Dancong teas. The tea liquor is smooth, silky, and naturally sweet, delivering a gentle honeyed finish with an elegant winter-like freshness.

Harvested during the late autumn to early winter season in Dapu, Guangdong, this special “winter harvest” style develops a lighter, purer, and more delicate expression compared with typical Ya Shi Xiang Dancong. Its aroma feels calmer and cleaner, while the texture becomes softer and more rounded.

Ideal for drinkers who enjoy refined floral oolong teas with a smooth, mellow, and comforting character. Especially suitable for those who prefer cleaner and gentler tea profiles over heavily roasted styles.

Pearl Orchid Green Tea is a rare traditional Chinese scented tea that combines the freshness of Huangshan Maofeng green tea with the elegant fragrance of Pearl Orchid, a treasured flower once cultivated in She County, Anhui for its beauty and later cherished for tea scenting.

Pearl Orchid gets its name from its tiny golden blossoms that grow along the stem like strings of pearls. Unlike the bright and expressive aroma of jasmine, Pearl Orchid offers a softer, deeper floral fragrance with a serene sweetness and a long-lasting finish. It is a classic seasonal tea in Chinese tea culture, traditionally enjoyed during the transitions between warmer and cooler seasons.

This tea is crafted with spring-picked Huangshan Maofeng and carefully scented with Pearl Orchid blossoms from She County. The fresh, delicate green tea base provides a clean and sweet foundation, while the floral infusion brings a gentle orchid-like aroma and a smoother, more refined character.

The first sip reveals a subtle floral sweetness, followed by the fresh and mellow taste of Huangshan Maofeng. The tea is light yet layered, with a graceful aroma that lingers long after each cup.

Rosa Roxburghii Black Tea is a unique tea specialty from Guizhou, China, made with Rosa roxburghii fruit (Ci Li, 刺梨) and black tea. The fruit is widely known for its naturally high vitamin C content.

Fresh Rosa roxburghii contains around 2000 mg of vitamin C per 100 g, compared to about 50 mg in oranges, which is why it is often called the “King of Vitamin C” in China.

Each autumn, ripe fruits are harvested and their centers are carefully hollowed out. Premium black tea leaves are placed inside the fruit shells, and the fruits are then slowly dried at about 80°C (176°F). This process allows the tea and fruit to gently infuse together, creating a tea that combines the sweet-tart fruit character with the smooth richness of black tea.
