BAI HAO RED SHAN TEA from ANCIENT TREES
ORIGIN
Vietnam is known as one of the oldest tea regions in the world, with a vast area of ancient tea trees spreading from northeast to northwest. Hà Giang province is located in the northeast part of Vietnam on the border with Yunnan province, China. This region is famous for its wild ancient trees grown here for hundreds and even thousands of years. The unique climate, high altitude, rich soil, and high level of humidity create an excellent environment for tea trees to grow, which gives this tea a particularly special character and taste. This is a homeland of different minorities like Vietnamese, H'Mông, Tay, Kinh, Nung, Dao, and others, who traditionally use tea leaves as medicine and take care of the tea trees.
Made from high-quality spring material harvested from 700+ years old tea trees, this tea is unique due to its rareness. Harvested by the H'Mong minority high in a mountain at an altitude of about 1500 meters and processed by an experienced tea master, this tea represents authentic wild wulong with special aroma, taste, and energy.
ORGANOLEPTICS
This Oriental Beauty style tea made from 700+ years old trees is one of a kind. From the first sight till the last drop this tea is a symphony which brings a lot of organoleptic sensations and gives you a calm and harmonious feeling. Dry tea leaves have light floral, honey and bakery notes bringing out associations of cookies and freshly baked dough. After rinsing aroma develops into fruity, citrus, grape notes. Very sweet and pleasant flavour worth enjoying before trying the infusion. The taste is unusually smooth, creamy, and airy, but at the same time deep and multifaceted. Pleasant notes of berries and a little bit of wood with a plum bone bitterness at the end. Very long-lasting sweet aftertaste with a little bit of freshness at the end of the tongue. This tea is an amazing found during our 2022 Vietnam tea expedition in a very limited quantity.
