From Longjing’s refreshing taste, Biluochun’s floral fragrance, Huangshan Maofeng’s rich aftertaste, to Enshi Yulu’s clean and pure flavor – each tea offers a completely different tasting experience, making it a journey for your taste buds.

First Harvest Means Better Quality Each tea in this collection comes from the 2025 Early Spring First Harvest – handpicked from the youngest, freshest buds of the season, guaranteeing vibrant freshness and rich aromas. First harvest teas are especially rare and prized; once the season passes, it’s almost impossible to find them again.

Sourced from Top Tea Regions, Expertly Crafted These teas are from China’s most renowned tea-growing regions, carefully crafted by seasoned tea masters. Whether it’s the signature fragrance of Longjing, the floral notes of Biluochun, the sweetness of Huangshan Maofeng, or the refreshing taste of Enshi Yulu – each tea is a masterpiece from a tea master, grown in ideal natural conditions.

Someone asked, "I'm new to Chinese green tea and want to try some well-known varieties without compromising on quality." This collection is curated just for that. We've handpicked the top 4 out of China's 10 famous green teas: Longjing, Biluochun, Huangshan Maofeng, and Lu'an Guapian. We've sourced these directly from authentic growers in the classic production areas, offering great value for money. Additionally, we've chosen high-altitude teas from seed-propagated group plantations and crafted by tea masters with over 20 years of experience. Each tea is a spring harvest from 2024. Here's a brief introduction to each:

Lu'an Guapian:  A Unique Green Tea 15g
Lu'an Guapian is a historic Chinese tea that was once a tribute to the royal family. This precious green tea still maintains its unique traditional craftsmanship and flavor. Our gourmet Lu'an Guapian is handcrafted by a master with 30 years of experience, using leaves from the small-leaf tea plants in Qi Mountain, Lu'an, Anhui, grown at an altitude of 600 meters. Picked at the end of spring, the leaves are tender with a rich aroma and a refreshing taste. The end-of-spring tea is more affordable than early spring tea, with a more pronounced tea flavor and a slightly reduced aroma. Lu'an Guapian is picked by selecting only the second leaf from the bud and two leaves, discarding the stem and tender leaves, retaining the essence of the tea to ensure the purity and delicate freshness of the tea soup.

Biluochun: A Premium Green Tea from China 15g
Biluochun is one of China's most famous green teas, known for its high-temperature killing and initial pan-frying followed by slow low-temperature drying. Unlike Longjing's pan-frying, dried green tea has a distinct bean flavor, but Biluochun's frying aroma is not prominent, offering a more refreshing taste. This high-grade Biluochun has a slight floral and fruity fragrance, slightly sweet without bitterness, and abundant downy hairs. Despite its high grade and flavor, it's affordably priced because it's made from tea plants in Sichuan, not the authentic Dongting Biluochun from Suzhou, Zhejiang.

Huangshan Maofeng: A Delightful Green Tea 12g
Huangshan Maofeng represents the high-mountain green teas of China, grown from 60-year-old tea trees in loamy soil at an altitude of 800 meters. Crafted by experienced tea masters using traditional drying techniques, this tea offers a perfect balance of quality and value. It's rich in minerals and exudes a refreshing green tea aroma with a subtle orchid fragrance. Its sweet and gentle flavor is endlessly memorable, making it ideal for daily drinking, especially for those who prefer a sweet taste without bitterness. The spring-picked high-mountain leaves add to its unique sweet taste and soft texture.

Longjing: A Famous Green Tea 15g
We're committed to providing an authentic Longjing tea, different from the popular low-grade "machine-cut Longjing." Our tea is selected from the traditional Longjing variety in Lishui, Zhejiang, crafted semi-manually by Longjing masters with over 30 years of experience, combining traditional techniques with modern conveniences. We choose to pick our tea after Grain Rain and before the beginning of summer, when the flavor is similar to pre-Grain Rain tea, but more affordable. Our tea comes from high-altitude gardens (900-1000 meters), where the climate and altitude provide an environment similar to West Lake, ensuring superior quality and value.

Our Longjing tea is of a high grade, carefully selected from one bud and two leaves to one bud and three leaves, offering complete leaves in contrast to the machine-cut tea with more stems and incomplete leaves. Our goal is to offer a genuine variety and craftsmanship of high-quality Longjing tea at an entry-level price, ensuring every cup exudes the pure aroma and elegant taste of traditional Longjing

Picking high-quality leaves from authentic tea varietals to guarantee unique taste.
Balancing quality with affordability to meet consumer needs.

Net weight: 90g, including:

Premium Biluochun: 15g
Premium Enshi Yulu: 15g
Premium Xinyang Maojian: 15g
Premium Lu'an Guapian: 15g
Premium Taiping Houkui: 15g
Premium Huangshan Maofeng: 15g

Here’s a brief overview of each tea:

Huangshan Maofeng: This tea is sourced from a renowned high mountain region, featuring tea trees over 60 years old grown in gravelly soil at 800 meters elevation. Recognized as a national intangible cultural heritage, Huangshan Maofeng boasts a distinctive aroma with floral and sweet notes, producing a clear, bright green-yellow tea that offers a pure high mountain experience.

Liu'an Guapian: This historic royal tribute tea was once reserved for the imperial family. Our premium Liu'an Guapian is hand-crafted by a master with decades of experience, sourced from high-altitude tea plants at 600 meters. The spring-harvested leaves ensure a rich fragrance and refreshing flavor, resulting in a pure, lingering aftertaste.

Taiping Houkui is a famous green tea from the Taiping area of Huangshan, Anhui Province, China. It comes from the core production region—Qiaoshan Village in Xinming Township—known for its cool, humid climate and fertile soil, perfect for growing tea. Our premium Taiping Houkui is made from one bud and three leaves, usually harvested around the Grain Rain season, with fine white fuzz on the leaves indicating top quality. The tea is grown from the traditional seed-propagated ‘Shi Da Shu’ variety, which matures later than usual. Due to the high altitude in Huangshan, the first harvest also takes place around Grain Rain. We work with Master Yu Jianguo, a tea farmer with over 20 years of experience, to produce this tea, which has a fresh flavor and aroma.

Biluochun: As one of the most iconic green teas in China, Biluochun is renowned for its unique floral and fruity aroma. Our premium Biluochun is sourced from Liyang, Jiangsu Province, crafted using traditional methods, and picked at the pre-rain period, ensuring a fresh, delicate flavor with minimal bitterness. This high-quality tea offers excellent value, priced at half to a third of similar products from core regions.

Xinyang Maojian: A top Chinese green tea, Xinyang Maojian comes from the core production area in Shihe District, Xinyang, located in high-altitude mountains at 900 meters. The significant temperature difference between day and night creates a unique elegant aroma and a fresh, flavorful taste. Our 2024 spring harvest features the highest quality leaves, with fine white hairs indicating superior quality.

Enshi Yulu: This historic steamed green tea is the only one in China that retains this traditional crafting method. Our Enshi Yulu comes from the core area in Enshi, Hubei, handpicked and crafted by a tea farmer with over 20 years of experience. Using high-grade leaves, this tea is fresh, rich, and slightly reminiscent of seaweed, while also being rich in natural selenium, known for its immune-boosting and antioxidant properties.

We noticed that many popular Longjing teas are "knife-cut" varieties. These Green Tea are made from leaves cut after high-grade teas have been hand-harvested. As a result, they contain more stems, and the leaves are often incomplete, producing a weaker flavor and possibly coming from non-authentic Longjing varieties. We wanted to offer a Longjing tea that delivers the authentic taste, variety, and craftsmanship at an entry-level price, allowing more people to experience the true flavors of this iconic tea.

Why choose our Longjing?

Craftsmanship: Handcrafted by a Longjing master with over 30 years of experience, our tea combines traditional techniques and modern refinement.

Seasonal Selection: We’ve chosen 谷雨茶 (Grain Rain) tea, which is harvested just after Qingming tea. The taste difference is minimal, but the price is significantly more affordable.

High-Altitude Quality: Our tea comes from Zhejiang Lishui’s Longjing heirloom variety. The climate and high altitude (900-1000 meters) offer conditions similar to West Lake, but with superior pricing and quality.

Leaf Grade: Selected for its high grade—one bud, two leaves—this tea is always made from the freshest spring harvest of the current year, ensuring it is new every year. Ideal for those who enjoy a clean, refreshing taste with signature chestnut and bean notes.

Precision Hand-Picking: Each batch is handpicked to ensure no stems and minimal tea dust, ensuring a purer brew with authentic flavor.

This tea is perfect for:

Tea lovers seeking an authentic Longjing experience with superior craftsmanship, and flavor,
People needing a mild caffeine boost, as Longjing’s caffeine content is moderate, helping with focus and alertness,
Tea culture enthusiasts, as Longjing is one of China’s top 10 famous teas with a rich history and tradition.
If you're looking for an entry-level authentic variety, craftsmanship, and flavor in Zhejiang Longjing, this is the most cost-effective option we could find!

Tasting Grade Longjing Tea Product Introduction and Reasons for Recommendation:

This Tasting Grade Longjing Tea is semi-handcrafted by Master Pan, who has 30 years of tea-making experience, and is carefully selected from the freshest pre-rain spring tea of 2024. As a traditional group variety Longjing, this tea is picked from high-altitude tea gardens in Lishui, Zhejiang, at an altitude of over 900 meters, where the superior climate conditions give the tea a more refreshing taste and rich layers of flavor. The tea is picked with buds and one to two leaves, ensuring its fresh and sweet taste, accompanied by a light and elegant fragrance.

Reasons for Recommendation:

Exquisite Craftsmanship: Master Pan has 30 years of experience in making Longjing tea, combining semi-manual techniques to ensure that each batch of tea can showcase the classic taste and unique flavor of Longjing tea.

High-Altitude Tea Gardens: Compared to other Longjing teas, this tea comes from high-altitude tea gardens in Lishui, where the superior climate conditions make the tea richer in substance, sweeter in taste, and more refreshing in aroma.

Pre-Rain Harvest: Pre-rain Longjing has tender leaves and is rich in substances, with a clear and sweet tea soup, accompanied by an elegant floral fragrance, making it a top choice among high-quality green teas.

Group Variety Tea Trees: Group variety tea trees have deep root systems, resulting in a richer taste and more lasting aroma. Compared to the Longjing 43 variety, Longjing tea made from group variety tea trees is more resistant to brewing, and the tea soup has a richer taste.

Suitable for:

Consumers who pursue high-quality green tea and pay attention to cost-effectiveness.
People who like the fresh and sweet taste of Longjing and want to experience the authentic flavor of the group variety Longjing.

Not Suitable for:

Tea lovers who prefer a richer and fuller taste may find this Longjing too subtle.

Whether you are looking to experience high-quality Longjing or to find an affordable and authentic green tea, this Tasting Grade Longjing Tea will be an ideal choice.

2025 Longjing First Flush Spring Tea   - Limited Stock green tea

We’re thrilled to introduce our 2025 Early Spring First Flush Longjing Tea, handcrafted by the expert Master Sheng Jiangjun. With over 20 years of tea-making experience and more than 30 years specializing in Longjing tea, Master Sheng is a true guardian of traditional tea-making techniques. From 2011 to 2013, he honed his craft in the heart of the Longjing tea-producing region, Meijiawu. Later, he established his own tea workshop in Xingchang, Zhejiang, where he began crafting the distinctive Xingchang Longjing tea that we proudly present to you today.

This particular tea comes from a high-altitude tea garden in the mountains of Zhejiang’s Xingchang region, with harvesting taking place around March 25th, making it a premium first flush green tea—early-picked, tender, and rare.

Product Details

Craftmaster: Sheng Jiangjun (20 years expertise)
Tea Varietal: Xingchang Native Cultivar Group
Origin: Shengzhou, Zhejiang, China | 600-800m Elevation
Harvest: First Spring 2025 Plucking (1 bud + 1 leaf standard)
Production Date: Crafted around March 25, 2025

Limited Availability: Only 50 packages available, each 50g

Why Our Early Spring Harvest Stands Out
Discover the pinnacle of spring tea craftsmanship with our limited 2025 First Flush Longjing. Harvested in late March from the youngest buds of century-old tea bushes, these tender leaves capture the essence of the season with unmatched floral aroma and velvety smoothness.

Xinchang vs. West Lake: A Hidden Gem
We source exclusively from Xinchang, Zhejiang — a pristine mountain region 2,000+ ft above sea level. Unlike crowded West Lake plantations, our organic tea gardens thrive in crisp air and mineral-rich soil, yielding a cleaner, crisper cup with subtle honey undertones.

Old-Growth Tea Bushes: Nature’s Flavor Laboratory
Our 50+ year-old heirloom tea varietals (Longjing Quntizhong) are the OG of green tea. These hardy plants adapt to mountain microclimates, creating complex layers of flavor — think fresh chestnut notes with a lingering orchid finish. Perfect for tea connoisseurs seeking authentic, small-batch quality.

Introducing our exquisite Biluochun, one of China's most renowned green teas.

This premium tea undergoes a unique process of high-temperature killing and is first pan-fried until dry, then slowly oven-dried at low temperatures. Unlike Longjing's pan-frying, which gives a distinct bean flavor, Biluochun's aroma is more subtle and refreshing. The slow, low-temperature frying process ensures there's no seaweed taste in Biluochun. This particular grade of Biluochun is quite high, featuring one bud and one leaf, made following the authentic Biluochun craftsmanship. It has a slight floral and fruity fragrance, slightly sweet without bitterness, and abundant in downy hairs. Although it's not from the authentic Dongting Biluochun in Suzhou, Zhejiang, but made from tea plants in Ya'an, Sichuan (close to the Tibetan Plateau, with an average altitude of over 2000 meters), this tea offers excellent quality and flavor at a more affordable price.

Reasons to choose this tea:

Crafted from the fresh spring harvest of April 2024, with one bud and one leaf, indicating high tenderness and grade of the tea leaves.
It's a high cost-performance Biluochun green tea without compromising quality.
Sourced from high-altitude tea gardens in Lingshan District, Ya'an City, Sichuan, at an altitude of 2000 meters, processed with the craftsmanship of Jiangsu Biluochun tea. The price is favorable because it's not from the core production area of Biluochun.

Purchase recommendation:

This tea is especially suitable for those who want to try Biluochun as beginners or for daily tea drinkers who need a large supply.
If you must purchase authentic Dongting Biluochun from Suzhou, Zhejiang, please buy with caution. 

Biluochun is one of China's most iconic green teas with a legacy that spans a thousand years. It's renowned for its unique floral and fruity aroma, often hailed as the most fragrant tea among greens. Traditional Biluochun tea gardens interplant fruit trees with tea bushes, allowing the leaves to naturally absorb a rich bouquet of floral and fruity scents, creating Biluochun's distinctive fresh and natural fragrance.

Our connoisseur-grade Biluochun is handpicked from the collective species (Jiu Keng variety) tea garden in Jiangdong Village, Tongguan Village Committee, Daibu Town, Liyang City, Jiangsu Province. The tea is personally crafted by Master Zhang, who has 30 years of tea-making experience. He adheres to the most traditional hand-crafting techniques to ensure that each leaf embodies the authentic flavor profile of Biluochun. Master Zhang's Biluochun boasts a distinct floral and fruity aroma, a long-lasting aftertaste, and a refreshing spring vibe with a delicate mouthfeel.

This tea is harvested before the rain, selecting the high-grade one bud and one leaf tea materials. The leaves are plump and tender green, and the tea soup is clear in color with a fresh sweet taste, almost devoid of astringency. Although its flavor and quality are on par with products from the core production area, the price is only half to one-third of the core origin products, making it a Biluochun tea with both high quality and great value for money.

Reasons to recommend:

Unique floral and fruity aroma: Biluochun's signature scent comes from the interplanted fruit trees in the tea garden. The dry tea has a natural, light aroma that becomes more pronounced upon brewing, making it especially suitable for tea enthusiasts who prefer a subtle fragrance.
Traditional handcrafting: This tea is handmade by Master Zhang with 30 years of experience, ensuring that the shape and flavor of each tea leaf are perfectly preserved. Handcrafted tea has a more delicate taste and a long, lingering aftertaste.
Great value: Although the tea comes from the surrounding high mountain tea gardens of the core production area, the quality is comparable to the authentic origin, but the price is only half to one-third of the tea from the core production area, making it suitable for consumers who pursue value for money.
High-grade picking: The tea is picked according to the high-grade standard of one bud and one leaf, especially before the rain, ensuring the tenderness and fresh taste of the tea leaves, and the tea soup is clear and bright.
Not recommended for:

Tea enthusiasts who prefer a strong roasted flavor: If you like the strong roasted flavor or bean flavor brought by the pan-frying process of Longjing or Biluochun, the floral and fruity aroma of this Biluochun may not meet your taste preferences.
Consumers with a limited budget: Although this tea offers great value, there may be cheaper options for consumers who are solely focused on price.
In summary, if you're looking for traditional craftsmanship, high quality, and a unique flavor profile, and you're fond of Biluochun's distinctive floral and fruity aroma, this connoisseur-grade Biluochun is an ideal choice for you.

Origin of Biluochun

• Location: Liyang, Zhejiang Province, China

• Picking Standard: One bud with one leaf

• Tea Cultivar: Jiu Keng Variety — a local group small-leaf cultivar from Dongting Mountain

• Tea Tree Age: Approximately 60 years

Wild green tea, produced in Kaishan Town, Hezhou City, Guangxi. The tea area is situated at an altitude of around 1000 meters, surrounded by mountains on three sides, with mist shrouding the area year-round. Grown in a pristine ecological environment with abundant vegetation, this wild green tea is cultivated without the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, resulting in limited yield with only one spring harvest per year. Processed using the techniques of Roasted Green Tea, it offers a rich and refreshing taste, initially slightly bitter but quickly turning sweet, with a fragrant and full-bodied aroma. The taste is complex and layered, with a unique apple fragrance and a lingering aftertaste. Even after multiple infusions, the aroma remains fresh and pleasant. The liquor is clear and bright, with a yellow-green hue, visually appealing.

2025 Biluochun First Flush - Rare Reserve Spring Tea(Pre-sale)
We’re excited to offer you the 2025 Early Spring First Flush Bi Luo Chun, sourced from the tea garden of Master Zhang in Dongguan Village, Dai Bu Town, Liyang City, Jiangsu Province. Master Zhang has over 20 years of tea-making experience, having learned from his father, who has been a renowned tea master for over 40 years. Master Zhang has kept traditional tea-making methods alive, using hand-rolling, roasting, and drying techniques passed down through generations. This year's tea is picked in late March, around March 20, and features tender, fresh leaves at the "one bud, one leaf" stage, ensuring the highest quality flavor and aroma.

Why We Source Biluochun from Liyang's Dai Town Instead of Lake Dongting
While Lake Dongting's Biluochun gets the hype, our Liyang Dai Town tea is the purist's pick. Think of it like craft beer vs. mass-produced lager – both quench your thirst, but one's got soul. Grown 60 miles west of Dongting in pollution-free mountain air, these old-growth tea bushes (the hardy 'Jiukeng' variety) have weathered decades to develop complex flavors. You get that classic Biluochun vibe, minus the touristy markup.

Why Handcrafted Beats Machine-Made
Master Zhang treats tea like a slow-cooked meal – no shortcuts. His hands knead each leaf to unlock natural oils (that's where the floral magic happens!), while factory machines just crush and rush. It's the difference between grandma's pie crust and frozen supermarket stuff. Want silky texture and aroma that dances on your tongue? That's the artisan craft talking.

Huangshan Maofeng Green Tea – High Mountain Chinese Green Tea with Orchid Aroma

Huangshan Maofeng is one of the most renowned green teas in China, grown in the designated regions around Huangshan (Yellow Mountain) in Anhui Province.

This tea stands out for its elegant appearance—fine white hairs cover the leaves, and the bud tips stand upright like mountain peaks, which inspired its name “Maofeng,” meaning “Fur Peak.”

He adheres to the philosophy of traditional craftsmanship and hand refinement, combining high-quality raw materials to create this high-quality, affordable Huangshan Maofeng green tea.

Compared to the common Longjing tea, Huangshan Maofeng does not have the bean and chestnut aromas of Longjing but focuses more on the natural fragrance, orchid scent, and sweetness of the green tea itself, without any seaweed flavor. Its taste is fresh and elegant, and the tea soup presents a clear greenish-yellow, offering a very pure high-mountain tea experience.

Why choose this Huangshan Maofeng?

Top-shelf ingredients: Harvested from 60-year-old tea trees planted in high-altitude (800 meters) gravelly soil, these conditions endow the tea leaves with rich minerals and a unique sweet orchid aroma.
Traditional craftsmanship: Made by an experienced tea master using traditional drying techniques, preserving the natural aroma and taste of the tea leaves.

Enjoy exploring niche high-quality green teas: Huangshan Maofeng is a niche tea in the Western market, with a unique fragrance and orchid scent, perfect for tea lovers who like to try new types of tea.

Not suitable for tea enthusiasts who:

Prefer strong pan-frying aromas or the bean and chestnut scents of Longjing tea, as Huangshan Maofeng has a milder and fresher flavor profile.

By choosing this Huangshan Maofeng, you will taste a Chinese high-mountain green tea that combines high quality with great value, experiencing the true beauty of traditional handcrafted tea art.

Why Choose Jinzhai Huangshan Maofeng Instead of Traditional Huangshan Maofeng?
While traditional Huangshan Maofeng is well-known, we’ve chosen Master Yu’s Jinzhai Huangshan Maofeng because it offers the same exceptional quality and unique flavor, but at a more accessible price. Jinzhai is not part of the core Huangshan region, but its natural environment makes it an ideal place for tea cultivation. The wild, native tea trees here have been growing for many years and produce tea with a flavor very similar to Huangshan Maofeng. The purity of the environment gives the tea a quality comparable to that of the famous Huangshan teas, but with a better price-to-quality ratio.

Why Choose Huangshan Maofeng Group Varieties?
We’ve selected Huangshan Maofeng made from group variety tea plants because it captures the most traditional, pure Huangshan Maofeng flavor. Group variety tea trees are grown from seeds, so they have natural genetic diversity. These trees have undergone years of natural selection, making them more stable and adaptable, which allows them to better reflect the natural flavor of the region.

Compared to modern tea plantations with clonal, asexual propagation, group variety tea trees grow in a more natural environment with deeper root systems. This results in richer, more complex tea flavors. The older age of these trees and their long exposure to the natural environment means they carry the most original tea aromas, delivering a tea with more depth and layers.

Enshi Yulu is a long-standing Chinese green tea made with the traditional steaming process, making it the only green tea in China that still uses this ancient method. The steaming technique was passed from China to Japan during the Tang Dynasty and has since become the main process for Japanese green tea. With its unique seaweed aroma, similar to Japanese sencha, Enshi Yulu retains the essence of traditional Chinese tea making.

Our Enshi Yulu comes straight from the heart of its production area, the Banqiao Dong Autonomous Township in Enshi, Hubei, China. The tea leaves are personally handpicked and crafted by Master He, a tea farmer with over 20 years of experience. His garden grows local Enshi tea varietals, and he selects only the highest grade of one bud and one leaf to ensure every sip is fresh, rich, and sweet without astringency, accompanied by a slight seaweed flavor. Most importantly, this tea is naturally rich in selenium, an essential trace element that can boost immunity, combat oxidation, and help lower blood pressure. Enshi, known as the "Selenium Capital of the World," offers these health benefits through its tea.

Reasons to choose Enshi Yulu:

Unique craftsmanship and historical legacy: For tea enthusiasts who love to explore traditional tea culture, Enshi Yulu offers a taste of China's oldest steaming process with a seaweed aroma reminiscent of Japanese green tea. Consumers who appreciate the flavor profile of Japanese sencha will also enjoy the distinctive taste of the steaming process.
Great value for money: We've selected a mid-range Enshi Yulu that maintains the quality of the core production area and authentic craftsmanship while being affordable. It's a fantastic green tea with a high cost-performance ratio, perfect for those who seek quality without breaking the bank.
Health benefits: Rich in selenium, Enshi Yulu offers antioxidant properties and can enhance immunity, making it ideal for health-conscious tea drinkers.
Cultural charm: This tea is from the ethnically diverse Enshi region, home to the Dong, Tujia, and Miao ethnic groups, among others. Interested consumers can even visit Enshi to experience the unique culture and natural environment firsthand.
Not recommended for:

Tea lovers who prefer the strong, pan-fried aroma of roasted green teas like Longjing or Biluochun, as Enshi Yulu does not have those flavors.
Those who dislike the seaweed aroma: If you're not a fan of the fresh, oceanic scent that comes from the steaming process, Enshi Yulu might not be your cup of tea.
Whether you're interested in traditional craftsmanship, health benefits, or great value, Enshi Yulu is an ideal choice for you.

Why choose Enshi’s native tea plant, the Entai Early variety?
For Enshi Yulu, we’ve selected the local Enshi native variety—Entai Early, a traditional “group variety” that’s been naturally selected and cultivated over time. This type of tea tree is more adaptable, has a longer lifespan, and offers more stable and complex flavors. It truly reflects the local environment and soil. Choosing group varieties ensures a purer, more nuanced taste profile, bringing you a natural, multi-layered tea experience.

What makes the core Enshi Yulu region special?
We’ve chosen the core tea-growing region in Enshi—Baiyangping Township in the Dabao Ping Group. This high-altitude area benefits from perfect growing conditions, with rich soil, plenty of sunlight, and a significant temperature difference between day and night. These conditions make the tea leaves grow slower and more concentrated in flavor, producing a tea with a deeper, purer taste that has both consistency and stability. Compared to other regions, Enshi Yulu from this area offers a more refined and authentic flavor.
