Small and Casual Gifts

From Zhushan, near Dongdingshan. Lightly fermented, with a clear, bright aroma of orchid.

Seven oolong teas in one set at a friendly price. A good small gift, too.

A Dong Ding oolong from Lugu. Medium fermentation finished in the light-aroma style, with sweet ripe fruit, flowers and honey.

An exceptionally rare original green tea, pan-fried from naturally grown old trees at 2,100 m above sea level in Yunnan Province. Its long finish rivals that of Raw Pu-erh.

The most lightly fermented of Taiwan's oolongs, Wen Shan Bao Zhong sits between green tea and oolong in its fresh character. A gentle aroma of orchid.

A high-quality genmaicha with a long finish, developed using naturally grown native-varietal sencha. The quality of the sencha itself comes through fully.

An unsmoked Lapsang Souchong made from the native varietal (qizhong) grown at around 1,300m in Tongmu village. Ripe-fruit aromas of peach, mango and longan.

A black tea made from Yunnan's rare purple tea. Faint notes of shiso, sweet potato and peach. Fully fermented, so it takes milk well.

A jasmine tea made to our order from naturally grown raw pu-erh we helped produce ourselves. A long finish and a substantial aftertaste that overturn what jasmine tea is assumed to be.

A custom-made jasmine tea using ancient tree Silver Needle, made by an ethnic minority in Yunnan Province from naturally grown old trees.

A green tea from the first spring flush in Yunnan, plucked one bud and one leaf, rolled into pearls and scented with fresh jasmine blossom.

An Anxi oolong given a medium roast. A bright osmanthus-like floral aroma with a toasty, dried-fruit character.

From a semi-wild garden at around 2,300m. Leaves bitten by the leafhoppers that thrive there develop a sweet honey aroma as the tea ages. A clear, gentle body.
