This Yunnan Mao Jian is a hybrid of northern small leaf Mao Jian and Yunnan large-leaf assamica. This particular tea is grown in Ning’Er county of Simao and was picked in late February.

Processing style is typical of green tea, so the aroma when brewed is incredibly full and textured! The taste is sweet, with a little green tea umami to counter that floral sweetness. First flush of spring tea!
