Zhu Ye Qing

Zhu Ye Qing

One of the most famous of Chinese green teas is Zhu Ye Qing. It is processed from the tea planted at the peak of the Meng mountain in Sichuan. Our Zhu Ye Qing was harvested before Qing Ming. The earlier harvest has had its milder flavours complemented by a light roasting, bringing forth the delicious sweetness present in the small, young leaves, along with a heady floral note rarely found in other green teas.

WHO is TEA MASTER PANDA?

Tea Masters Panda is a good friend and our mentor when it comes to Pu-erh. Tea Master Panda is originally from Sichuan (hence the name) and came to Yunnan due his passion for Pu-erh tea. In addition to Pu-erh, he is also a Master of calligraphy and has extensive knowledge of Chinese history.
