Special features in location, cultivation and processing
At an altitude of over 2,000 metres, the tea farm benefits not only from an ideal stimulating mountain climate for tea cultivation (with day-to-night temperature differences of up to 10–20°C) but also from consistently mist-rich conditions. This natural veil of fog protects the tea leaves from direct sunlight and contributes to an especially sweet, aromatic infusion. It is also the origin of this tea’s epithet “Bai Lu” – literally “white dew”.
As part of the historical region of origin of the tea plant, the area is home to many majestic old tea trees, from which the highly sought-after Pu Erh teas are traditionally produced. The use of the local Yunnan Daye cultivar (“Yunnan Large Leaf”) gives this tea a particularly aromatic, unique and at the same time distinctly refined character.
Single Origin
