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 Spring Equinox 2019
Home, Tea, Green teas, Zhejiang, Lighter Aromas, Fuller Bodies, Cool EnergyHangzhou Original:
To acquire really fine Long-jing in rapidly changing China, we had to search away from tourists infested localities, and yet still faithful to the origin of Hangzhou. In Wu’s farm where the underground water is crisp and the air sweet, our Long-jing master realizes the environment is more important than the convenience; there would be no quality without the traditional respect for Nature. Tea Hong’s Long-jing Spring Equinox might well be used by nobles and mandarins in their tea competition when Emperor Qianlong was still young and flamboyant, and crazy about the tea.

White Peony Classic Long 2016
Tea, White teas, Minnan/ Mindong, Fujian, Lighter Aromas, Milder Tastes, Neutral-Cool EnergyFinest Zhenghe Bai Mudan:
While White Peony from Fuding tastes more floral, that from the other earliest region, Zhenghe, tastes longer and deeper. The more tedious curing process is marked by the darker colors on the leaves. This is the best and most classical representation from the origin, aka King of White Peony, a favorite by many white tea connoisseurs.

Organic Spring
Home, Tea, Green teas, Huangshan - Anhui, Taiwan, Lighter Aromas, Milder Tastes, Cold Energy, Organic teasQingxin Green Tea:
A green tea made from the first flush of a Taiwan wulong cultivar grown in the mountains of the Huangshan UNESCO World Heritage Site to the strictest organic standard, Tea Hong’s Organic Spring has a mild and yet flavorful character that changes according to how it is infused and the state of the drinker. This non-demanding fluidity makes this tea a great choice for the Zen sitter and the hard thinker, to whom discovery is a transcendence.

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.
