One of China’s ten famous teas, it grows on Huang Shan Mountain, a region known for its high rainfall and humidity and frequent mists.
First produced in the late 1800s, it grows amongst wild peach trees and is gathered and processed by hand. It has a complex aroma with a sweet floral taste, and just a trace of nuttiness.
Its emerald leaves give a deep amber infusion. Connoisseurs feel that the first infusion is the most fragrant, the second the sweetest and the third has the strongest flavour.
Directions: Allow boiled water to cool for 3-4 minutes. Pre-heat the teapot and add 2-3 gram (1-1½ teaspoons) per person. Infuse the leaves for 2-4 minutes according to taste.
The leaves can be infused up to 3 times, allowing a longer time for each infusion.
