Yunnan Province, China
Tasting Notes - Crisp, Roasted, RobustA high mountain red tea from the remote area of Ai Lao - the birthplace of all tea. These tea trees are bathed frequently in mist and dew, and benefit from the high altitude sunshine. The tea has been lightly oxidized then charcoal-roasted, giving it a crisp, vital character, and a richer flavor than the sun-dried version of the same leaf. The tea seems to have a life force all its own, and the energy of the mountain and mineral quality of its terroir is captured in the cup. One of our personal favorite teas.
