Tea Drunk Xin Yang Mao Jian

Tea Drunk introduces Xin Yang Mao Jian, a renowned green tea from China that stands alongside the famous Long Jing. Tea Drunk adheres to a rigorous four-point standard to ensure the prestige of this historically significant tea. This includes sourcing from the historic lot of a revered terroir, using only the most revered heirloom cultivars propagated through sexual reproduction, and harvesting during the optimal one to three days of the short 10-15 day season to capture the finest vintage. Furthermore, the crafting of this famous tea demands utmost skill and rigor, ensuring no compromises are made in its preparation.

This Xin Yang Mao Jian is harvested from indigenous heirloom tea trees located on the favored southeast-facing side of Che Yun Shan, the most celebrated village of its historic origin mountain. The tea is 100% handmade, charcoal-baked, and undergoes the traditional one-week resting time after primary processing and a three-week mandatory resting period following fining. The resulting infusion is a classic Mao Jian with a sharp yet non-aggressive character, offering an aromatic and grounded flavor profile that is umami and delicately floral, concluding with a long and layered aftertaste. Tea Drunk presents this offering, believing it embodies the essence of a historically famous tea that continues to enchant connoisseurs.
