It has a soft taste and a refreshing flavor that reminds one of grass, perilla, honey, and peaches.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Since the tea garden is far from the village, the amount sourced is limited, making it a rare tea.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cimg alt=\"Large dry white tea leaves in a white cup\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-8745\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/w30_03.jpg?v=1713923309\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\"\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n    Tea Garden Untouched by Humans for Decades\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    High Mountain White Tea is made from tea harvested from Bai Yan Shan in Zhenkang County, Lincang City, Yunnan Province, at an altitude of 2100m to 2300m, and nearby mountains. The tea trees are estimated to be 100 to 150 years old. The tea garden has been left unattended for decades, and the tea trees have become semi-wild. In China, such tea gardens are called \"wild tea gardens.\"\n    \u003cimg alt=\"Forested mountain ridges fading into haze\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-8746\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/w30_02-1.jpg?v=1713923310\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\"\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n    Honey Fragrance Formed by Leafhoppers\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    In addition to the high altitude, the characteristic of High Mountain White Tea is that it comes from tea gardens with plenty of sunshine. Tea from sunlit gardens has a very floral flavor. Moreover, sunlit tea gardens are prone to leafhoppers, resulting in many tea leaves that have been attacked by them.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    When bitten by leafhoppers, the tea tries to resist by biosynthesizing a substance called terpenoid, which is equivalent to antibodies in humans.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    When this substance is changed through fermentation and aging, it forms a honey fragrance similar to that found in Oriental Beauty. Even in its fresh state, High Mountain White Tea has a faint honey fragrance. Generally, the honey fragrance becomes more pronounced as fermentation and aging progress. It is expected that High Mountain White Tea will develop a clearer honey fragrance (muscatel flavor) after being aged in an anaerobic environment for several years.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/en-en\/blogs\/blog\/posts-895\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n    High-Altitude Tea is High-Quality Tea\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    When sourcing tea, we invariably prefer tea gardens at high altitudes. As you can imagine, the climate in high-altitude areas allows for strong sunlight and high temperatures during the day, while nights cool down rapidly. This results in vigorous photosynthesis during the day and minimal consumption activities at night, making the tea rich in components and giving it a more dense flavor and aroma.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Not just tea, but vegetables, wild plants, and fruits from high-altitude regions have an absolute advantage in quality.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cimg alt=\"Dry white tea leaves in a white cup on a patterned surface\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-8737\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/IMG_8435.jpg?v=1713923121\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\"\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cimg alt=\"A cup of pale tea beside a cup of brewed leaves\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-8736\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/IMG_8445.jpg?v=1713923123\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\"\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    High Mountain White Tea has a refreshing flavor reminiscent of perilla and herbs, with a hint of peach, and a sweet muscatel aftertaste. It features a smooth mouthfeel and a transparent flavor. In addition to brewing with hot water, we also recommend brewing with cold water. It might also be interesting to let some of the tea age for a long time without opening the package to bring out the muscatel flavor.\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HOJO Tea","offers":[{"title":"50g (in a bag)","offer_id":43880369815728,"sku":"w30cc","price":2200.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true},{"title":"150g (50g x 3 bags)","offer_id":44932438458544,"sku":"w30cb","price":6200.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true},{"title":"600g value pack (50g x 12 bags)","offer_id":44932438491312,"sku":"w30cv","price":20700.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/IMG_4110-2.jpg?v=1787720261","url":"https:\/\/hojotea.com\/en\/products\/w30","provider":"お茶の専門店HOJO \/ HOJO CO., LTD.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
