Country of Origin: China Region: Yunnan ProvinceGrade: TGFOP (Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe)
Altitude: 4000 feet Manufacture Type: Orthodox
Infusion: Bright, with an origin specific character.
Cup Characteristics: Excellent fullness with subtle China sweetness. Only produced during March and April, when the mountain air is moist and cool.
Information: It is believed throughout the tea world that the Chinese province of Yunnan, which borders Laos, Vietnam, Burma, and Tibet, is the birthplace of the world’s first tea plantations. The tea there is grown at very high elevations ranging from 4500-6000 feet above sea level. The altitude, combined with the warmth and humidity of the highlands creates a natural greenhouse that Yunnan tea plants thrive in. Our Yunnan tea like most Yunnan teas is known by its full-bodied and slightly sweet flavor.
Hot tea brewing method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon of tea for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea). Milk and sugar can also be added.
Iced tea brewing method: (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 5 teaspoons of tea into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste.
