Origin

Dahongpao tea grows in the cracks and crevices of rocky cliffs in high mountains. The area is often covered in mist and clouds, with mild winters, cool summers, and large temperature swings between day and night.

Tea Garden

The tea garden is nestled in a unique terroir of volcanic acidic red soil. This loose, well-drained earth, combined with the rocky substrate, is known to influence the tea's complexity and distinctive mineral character in its flavor profile.

Tea Leaves

Open-leaf plucking is the criterion, selecting fresh leaves with three to four open leaves.
