SNOW SHAN TEA from BẮC MÊ ANCIENT TREES

ORIGIN
Bắc Mê is a rural district of Hà Giang province in the Northeast region of Vietnam. The district covers an area of 844 km2. The district capital lies at Yên Phú. This is the closest village to the start of a 4.5-hour journey into the wild jungle to harvest tea leaves from ancient tea trees. Perfect tropical surroundings and weather conditions are best for the tea material to grow. It is 100% natural farming, with no involvement of people. Very rich tea in terms of gene pool. Unique and exquisite tea for connoisseurs of Gu Shu tea. We are excited to present you with one of the wildest teas we've ever sourced. Don't forget to check out our YouTube video about harvesting and processing this exact batch of tea.

Mao Cha translates as "rough tea" and means that this tea is unfinished and in an intermediate production stage. This term is used for a tea material ready to be steamed and pressed in case of Sheng (Raw) Pu'Er production or further fermentation process during Shu (Ripe) Pu'Er production. This type of tea is also used for blending and further storage before being pressed into 'cakes'.

SNOW SHAN (snow-upon-a-high-mountain) arises from the thick snow-white coat of fur that embraces each silky green tea bud. This telling feature enables the tea leaves to thrive at a height of 2000 meters above sea level, hampered by bitingly cold and frosty climate all year round. Ranging along North West Mountainous area: from Hà Giang, Yên Bái, Lào Cai to Lai Châu, Điện Biên, Sơn La ... Each of those lands is filled with Snow Shan Tea traces. Depending on the different soil conditions, climate, harvesting habits, and crafty processing methods in each province, Snow Shan Tea Taste would vary accordingly.
