Discover the refined elegance of Huangshan Mao Feng (Pre-Rain) Green Tea, a celebrated spring harvest from the misty mountains of Huangshan in Anhui Province, China. This exquisite Mao Feng variety is carefully handpicked just before the Qingming Festival, capturing the tender, young leaves at their peak freshness. The tea unfurls its signature long, slender leaves with each cup, releasing a delicate aroma and a gentle, slightly sweet flavour with hints of chestnut and orchid.

Grown in the lush, mineral-rich soil of Huangshan's mist-shrouded mountains, this tea is cultivated using traditional methods that preserve its high antioxidant content and natural purity. Huangshan Mao Feng is perfect for tea connoisseurs who seek the subtle complexity and smooth finish of a classic Chinese green tea.
