Why Ancient Tree Black Tea Stands Out
Ancient tea trees, often over 100 years old, grow in remote, pristine mountain forests, free from synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. Their deep roots absorb rich minerals and nutrients, resulting in tea with a full-bodied, layered flavor and natural floral or honey notes.

The leaves of ancient tree black tea are thicker and more resilient, with higher levels of polyphenols and aromatic compounds, making the tea exceptionally durable in brewing. Each steep releases consistent flavor and aroma, often lasting for many infusions.

Yunnan, home to over 56 million ancient tea trees, is known as the “kingdom of ancient tea.” With the introduction of the Yunnan Ancient Tea Tree Protection Regulation in 2023, these trees are now safeguarded to ensure their heritage continues. Ancient tree black tea is a unique gem, offering both a pure taste and a connection to centuries of tradition.
