🌿 Elevation: 500–800m

Harvest:

🌿 Green tea leaves are carefully hand-plucked in early spring when they are tender and packed with flavor.

Processing:

🌿 The green tea leaves are lightly steamed and dried to preserve their natural vegetal flavor.

🌿 The final product is a beautifully scented tea that captures the delicate aroma and essence of osmanthus.

Brewing Guide

🌿 Water temperature: 175–180°F (80–82°C)
🌿 Steep time: 2–3 minutes
🌿 Tea quantity: 1 -2 teaspoons (2-3 g) per 220 ml
🌿 Cold Brew: Steep 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of loose-leaf tea (or 3–4 tea bags) in 1 liter of cold water in the fridge for 6–8 hours, then strain and serve over ice.

For hot brewing, be sure not to over-steep, as this can overpower the subtle floral notes. Enjoy up to 2–3 infusions, each offering a new layer of flavor.
