Green • Beauty's Waist | Sea Salt, Sweet Cream, Pine

Farmer's Note

Though generations of my family were deeply rooted in traditions and customs of the tea industry, for the 50 years I have been with tea, I have always been seeking more creative ways to grow and present tea. We insist on no chemical fertilizer or pesticides usage. Rather, we use sheep manure to nourish the soil, and weeding is done by hand. In fact, we pride ourselves on having an “unruly” tea garden. Qing Xin Da Mao is a tea bush originally cultivated in Taiwan and predominantly made into a wulong tea. While examining the tender leaves, their forest green pigment and thickness sparked my curiosity - what if we use this cultivar to make a green tea? That moment eventually led to this stunning tea in your cup, refreshing, savory, and long-lasting.
