Meishan Paochong
USD 10.40
Winter 2017 Batch
Originally labelled as “Floral Aroma Tea”, Paochong is nowadays produced in many parts of Taiwan and China. However, not all to the subtle, sweet and smooth quality that the original is meant to be. We have combed different regions to find one that is almost comparable to prize winning ones at the origin but at less than one-third the price. Meishan is a region in itself that has all fine oolong production conditions as the origin Wenshan, only not as famous. This tea is for those who appreciate the genuine taste of Paochong but prefer to put off the budget for the subtle finesse of the first prize tea till later.

Taste profile
Soft, floral, buttery aroma with light accents of cinnamon and fresh bread. Smooth, velvety texture. Gently sweet liquor with extremely light citrus afterbite. Slowly come sweet aftertaste. One of the most easy tasting teas.
Infusion tip:
Use near boiling water. Any infusion style. Great for both gongfu tea beginners or as a tea in the mug. While you can prepare this tea as any other teas, do try using a bit more leaves for a more velvety, substantial liquor. This tea is quite unique in holding up to long infusion.

A very special tea bush — Camellia sinensis cultivar Shidaye — makes this unique looking tea. Each and every tediously selected pluck is carefully flattened between meshes during the slow baking process. We select only the best of these top grades for the fresh, cooling and cleansing sensations that complete this tea's purpose in addition to being wonderful to look at.

Luan Guapian 2018
Home, Tea, Green teas, Huangshan - Anhui, Lighter Aromas, Milder Tastes, Cold Energyaka Melon Seed Tea
Unlike other green teas that are prized for plucking early in Spring, leaves of Da Guazi need to be quite open in order to make a fine Luan Guapian. This gives the proper biochemistry that yields enough pectin for the tea's signature velvety texture and slightly sweet character. This unique nature is possible only with a special local cultivar — Da Guazi — Big Melon Seed, hence the funny name. If Longjing is too savoury and Taiping Houkui is too "green" for you, Lu'an Guapian is a great alternative of high quality with a different, yet pleasant and lively character.
