Zhengyuan Mao Cha

A highly aromatic tea that offers a surprising grassy note and a sweet aftertaste that is unusual.  This lot was grown in the mountains of the Zhengyuan area, in the famous Simao prefecture, one of the highest tea producing areas in Yunnan Province.  This lot is a mix of large and small leaf varietals that grow at an altitude of between 1999 and 2100 meters, thus creating the clear taste notes described herein.  The tea bushes and trees that sourced this lot range in age up to 100 years and typically grow wild.  Produced in 2009.
