Description

The Yi People of China’s Simao District selected this fine April 2013 picked tea for traditional roasting in clay jars. Their cultural association with fire is tied to the legendary figure Atilaba, who drove away a plague of locusts with pine torches. Expect a fiery cup in terms of flavor and potency. Lovers of Japanese roasted tea will enjoy this.
