Yunnan Bai Mu Dan
'White Peony' - a sign of high quality is the natural shape of the leaves, the deep, glossy grey-green colour and the high proportion of 'bai hao' - white hairs from the tips.
The colour of the infusion is yellowish-amber, the aroma is floral. The flavour is smooth and at the same time full-bodied and round. Aftertaste is long and pleasantly sweet. The tea only needs to be steeped for a short time, it lasts for many infusions.
Gou Qing
Lycium chinense (goji)
Fresh, only lightly dried Lycium chinense (goji, wolfberries), which has been used throughout China for centuries.
The shape is a bit like raisins, the taste of the fruit is sweet with a slightly sour aftertaste.
In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and among ordinary Chinese, goji is considered an indispensable food supplement. It is known for its benefits to the human body, both in young and old age. No negative side effects are known.
Tie Guan Yin Superior
"The Iron Goddess of Mercy," or the Bodhisattva Guan Yin. One of the most famous Chinese teas ever.
The leaves are relatively thick, juicy and large, the infusion gives a rich green-yellow color. In the traditional Chinese concept, tea has most of what is called the orchid quality of taste & aroma. Basic Tie Guan Yin variety roasted to 25% to achieve a more pronounced and richer taste.
Maocha 2023
Green (sheng) pu-erh or even better maocha from the southern areas of Yunnan. Large leaves (Da Ye) smell thin and very fresh. Tea has traditionally been dried in the sun, without accelerated modern drying in the oven, and therefore does not contain the slightest hint of unpleasant smoked.
The taste is very delicate, sweet and, unlike classic green pu-erhas, it doesn't even have many fruity tones. You will find in it rather light sweetness and freshness, floral tones and long-lasting sweet gentle aftertaste.
