Description

Huang Shan Mao Feng: Yellow Mountain Fur Peak

Huang Shan Mao Feng, also known as Yellow Mountain Fur Peak, is produced in Anhui Province and as a famous, tribute tea is one of China's most celebrated green teas. It is grown amongst the rocks and pinnacles of Huang Shan mountain, it has long, elegant leaves. Picked in early April, it is only the bud and first leaf that is picked. Pale golden in the cup, the light bodied flavour has a sweetly floral, faintly nutty yet fragrant character that is immensely smooth. Use one teaspoon per cup with freshly boiled water that has cooled a couple of minutes and infuse for three minutes. Increase the infusion time for subsequent infusions.

Huang Shan Mao Feng has been chosen for its distinctive, balanced flavour, aroma and appearance. Our tea is carefully sourced from long-established shippers and tea gardens. We can therefore guarantee the quality and origin of each tea and that it conforms to UK food and drink health regulations and our own demanding grading requirements.

You will be well rewarded for your patience!
