Tea from China - Huangshan Mao Feng - box of 25g
Harvested during the first days of Spring on the slopes of Huangshan Mountain, a renowned site of Anhui province classified UNESCO Word Heritage, Huangshan Mao Feng tea is one of the ten most famous tea in China. Made from a local wide-leaf cultivar, it delivers a mellow cup with floral and warm sugar notes. A real treat, as much for its magnificent leaves as for its tasty liquor.
This batch comes from a local broad-leaved cultivar. The first production of Huangshan Mao Feng dates from the reign of Emperor Guangxu, during Qing dynasty, but has been known for more than 300 years. The harvest begins around Qing Ming (April 5).

KNOW-HOW & QUALITY
Teas canisters and infusions
All our teas and the plants used in infusions are selected through the seasons by our buyers, directly from our producers. All products are chosen for both their visual appearance and their organoleptic qualities. Compliance tests are then commissioned from a COFRAC-accredited external, independent laboratory before any orders are placed.
Once received, batches are placed in quarantine while we carry out two more tests. The first is an organoleptic test completed by our specialists (taste, smell and visual). The second comprises a series of analyses at a COFRAC.-accredited, independent, external lab.
At our factory, we have developed special optical sorting and dusting equipment for our raw ingredients. Delicate items are sorted by hand.
Our metal boxes are the trademark of DAMMANN Frères’ expertise and are an excellent way to maintain the quality of the leaves, ensure the tea remains fresh and preserve the careful balance of our recipes.
