Teng Chong Hui Long Zhai Yunnan Green Tea

1. High-Mountain Origin – Grown in Hui Long Zhai, western Tengchong, Yunnan, near the Myanmar border. The cool climate and elevations reaching approximately 3,000 meters encourage slow leaf development and a complex flavor profile.

2. Late-Picked First Flush – Due to the high-altitude conditions, this is one of Yunnan’s latest first-flush teas. Tender buds and leaves are harvested together in late April, just as they begin to sprout.

3. Traditionally Hand-Fired– The freshly picked leaves are briefly wok-fired by hand at a high temperature, helping preserve their freshness, extend shelf life, and enhance their aromatic qualities.

4. Nutty, Aromatic Flavor – The brewed tea offers a pronounced aroma, distinctive nutty notes, and a fast, satisfying *huigan*—a naturally sweet aftertaste that quickly follows each sip.

5. Bold and Refreshing– Slightly more bitter and stimulating than green teas from the Simao region, it makes an excellent morning pick-me-up or a refreshing alternative to raw pu-erh.
