Huangshan Hsieh Yu Tea Co.

I received this from my GFs nephew when he came from Anhui, the home of Mao Feng. My first tasting was at work when I left the leaf to steep for an eternity. When I finally had the time to sip it I was blown away. I knew I was drinking something very special. A very complex lush, green, cool misty forest. Today I have finally a minute to write about it. At first I did not think it was a Mao Feng. It did not look or taste like one. My GF said it was an ultra premium. Quite frankly if I was stranded on a deserted island and I could choose only one tea this is one I would pick. The dried leaf has an aroma I would like to have made into an essential oil. When I am done with this tin {sorry about the sideways pic} I have to have another. This is one of the teas that has the mind and body humming to the tune of the ancients….
