In early April, Wu Mu Long at high altitude is still a bit chilly. Because the tea grows in lower temperatures, the leaves are smaller, resulting in a higher bud ratio, giving a smooth and creamy texture in the mouth.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    When people think of Pu-erh tea, they often imagine a brown tea with flavors like dried mushrooms or dried fruits, but that is a type of Pu-erh called Ripe Pu-erh.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Raw Pu-erh tea is a delicate tea with a fruity flavor, similar to freshly made white wine.

The village is formed by ethnic minorities such as the Yi race. Wu Mu Long is a small village where even the best accommodation does not have lighting at night, hot showers, or proper toilets when I first time visited there. Due to its rustic and rural charm, the village is insulated from external noise, making it less susceptible to market price fluctuations. Therefore, traditional natural cultivation tea gardens still exist in the village.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n        \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/R0010316.jpg\" alt=\"Wu Mu Long Village\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-9445\"\u003e\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n        \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/IMG_4108.jpg\" alt=\"Wu Mu Long Tea Garden\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-7455\"\u003e\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003ch2\u003e\n        Long Aftertaste and Sweet Flavor from Natural Cultivation\n    \u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n        This product is made from tea leaves harvested from trees that are a few hundred years old, located in tea gardens at an altitude of over 2000 meters.

Over the years, we have built connections with many famous tea regions. However, our focus is not on a region's fame, but rather on tea with transparency and a long-lasting aftertaste. To achieve this, we focus on remote mountain villages, selecting tea gardens with ancient tea tree, high altitudes, and no fertilizers, sourcing through unique logistics channels.
