Description
Huang Shan Mao Feng – Famous Yellow Mountain Green TeaHuang Shan Mao Feng is one of China's Top Ten Famous Teas. Our artisan Huang Shan Mao Feng is grown and crafted in the Mount Huangshan (Yellow Mountain) area of Anhui Province, a misty, breathtaking region long celebrated for its tea. It was originally created by Xie Yuda during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty and has only grown in popularity since, thanks to its elegant aroma and taste. This tea is made from tender spring leaves hand-picked just after the Qingming rains and processed using traditional pan-frying before drying. Open the bag and you'll be greeted by yellowish-green, slightly curled leaves with a refreshing, floral and bright character — a sign of the careful craftsmanship behind every batch. Tasting Notes
Why You'll Love ItHuang Shan Mao Feng offers a perfect balance of sweetness, floral elegance and gentle depth — with no harsh bitterness. It's a refined, approachable green tea that's equally enjoyable for everyday sipping and special occasions. It's a fresh, gentle cup for any time of day.
How to EnjoyBrew it in a clear glass to watch the leaves dance and unfurl, and enjoy multiple steeps to discover how the flavor evolves.

A little steeping tipLet just-boiled water cool for a minute or two — water that’s too hot can turn delicate leaves bitter. Good leaves give a lovely second cup, too.
A fresh way to enjoy itSweeten while the tea is still hot so it dissolves. For a smoother, mellower glass, try cold brew: leaves in cold water in the fridge for 6–8 hours.
