Yunnan “Zhu Ye Qing” Green Tea

1. High-Mountain First Flush– Harvested in early March from the high mountains of Simao, Yunnan, using tender young buds from the season’s first spring growth.

2. Distinctive Yunnan Large-Leaf Varietal – Made from *Camellia sinensis* var. *assamica*, this tea offers a bolder and more robust character than premium small-leaf green teas.

3. Premium Processing Style – Carefully processed in a style similar to renowned small-leaf green teas such as Sichuan Zhu Ye Qing, while retaining the distinctive qualities of Yunnan’s large-leaf tea.

4. Powerful Vegetal Umami– Naturally rich in tannins, the infusion delivers a penetrating vegetal aroma and a strong, savory umami flavor that coats the mouth and throat.

5. Beautiful Vertical Leaf Display – Best brewed in a clear glass or *cha hai*, where the elegant leaves can be seen standing vertically—some floating near the surface while others slowly settle to the bottom.
