Description

Feng Qing is a relatively new varietal first planted in the late 1990’s. It’s a hybrid of local Feng Qing Taliensis and Assamica.

Sweet and thick-bodied tea that is hard to over-brew.

If you are a fan of pure bud teas that have malt and chocolate sweetness then this tea might well be the one for you!
