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.

Longjing First Flush 2019
Tea, Green teas, Zhejiang, Lighter Aromas, Fuller Bodies, Cool EnergyHangzhou Original:
This is a more affordable version of the most sought after Chinese green tea. While some people are willing to pay thousands for a small pack of the earliest harvest in Spring, Tea Hong brings you what is authentic but slightly later in season, for similar enjoyment but much less in price. It is, nevertheless, still a first flush — some tea grows slower than others, dependent on the cultivar, horticulture and micro-climate.

Huangshan Cuiyu
Home, Tea, Green teas, Huangshan - Anhui, Lighter Aromas, Milder Tastes, Cool EnergyYuqian Huangshan Maofeng:
Huangshan Maofeng green tea is a must-have souvenir when one visits Huangshan. However, even if you know the way to real teashops rather than tourist traps, a pack of such quality as Tea Hong's Cuiyu would come at a high price. That is why this pleasant tasting and slightly sweet baked green tea is a most popular item not only for our retail, but also export. To maintain consistent high quality, we employ only harvest before the lunar almanac demarkation of “guyu” — the first rain for seeding, around early to mid-April. "Yuqian" — before the rain — is the traditional term for this.

Tieguanyin Light
Tea, Oolongs, Minnan/ Mindong, Fujian, Floral Aromas, Milder Tastes, Cold EnergyGoddess of Mercy:
The natural bouquet of an oolong comes as an integral part of the taste profile, such as that of our Tieguanyin Light. Not only is this coherent “oneness” a factor we tea purists cherish for purity’s sake, but is also perhaps a freshness we all need amongst the overdose of artificiality in modern life. Our Tieguanyin differs from others by being more faithful to the traditional style — less green but more fermented. This is reflected in its relatively more neutral TCM character, a silkier texture and a softer, rounder body.

Longjing Pure
Home, Tea, Green teas, Huangshan - Anhui, Lighter Aromas, Milder Tastes, Cool EnergyExport Grade 1 Special:
Finer and safer quality Longjing from the genuine origin has become so high price that there is a great demand for alternatives. Tea Hong’s Longjing Pure is produced deep in the high mountains in a national conservation area away from pollution. Same latitude as Hangzhou, but higher up in altitude. Even more ideal for green tea. Not only does it answer the market need but can also satisfy the connoisseur’s high requirement for taste authenticity. Tea Hong’s Longjing Pure. Purely Longjing.
