• Outstanding Infusion Count: Exceptional leaf resilience — flavor remains rich and complex well beyond 10 steeps, making each 8.3g bag a marathon of taste.

Exceptional Terroir (Hui Yuan Keng)

Grown in the misty, secluded valleys of Hui Yuan Keng, our tea trees thrive on rocky slopes with ideal microclimates. This legendary core Wuyi terroir (known for its unique rock soil) creates the tea's signature steady, mellow woody character, fresh elegant aroma, and distinct mineral finish — the foundation of its remarkable staying power across 10+ brews.

Traditional Craftsmanship

Adhering to time-honored Wuyi techniques, every step—from spring picking and natural withering to repeated rolling and slow charcoal roasting—is executed with care. The charcoal baking awakens the tea's natural cinnamon-like, mossy, and orchid notes, ensuring a rich, layered experience that unfolds gradually from the first to the tenth cup and beyond.
