Description

Handpicked leaves. Top quality production by Mr. Li.

A sweet aroma reminiscent of a brisk, high mountain sunrises and sweet green vegetation.

From the “Pure Heart,” or Qing Xin / 清心 varietal, considered the most pure representation of high mountain tea.

If we had to describe this tea in one sentence:

White tea is elegant, green tea is pure, and black tea is bold, but a fine Oolong is all three and more.
