Pre-order Organic Tian Mu Yun Wu Green Tea

This tea is plucked during the early spring days near “Grain Rain”, or 谷雨, the sixth solar term. To ensure quality, one bud is picked with either one or two leaves, just beginning to open up; with this method, it is estimated that in 1kg of raw material, there are about 62,000 suitable young shoots.

Yun Wu translates literally to ‘cloud and mist’, and is somewhat of a generic name for green teas. In general, the higher the ranking of a green tea, the milder its taste will be - and like most of these high-grade green teas, Teavivre’s organic Tian Mu Yun Wu has a delightfully light taste. The flavor is very smooth, with some definite light sweetness as well as a brisk spring taste in each sip, soft yet long-lasting.

Slightly Acidic Sandy Soil

The loose soil condition makes it breathable and water permeable; deep soil layer makes it rich in minerals and trace elements. So the tea grow here is rich in natural nutrition.

National First-level Water Conservation Area

The tea garden is nourished and influenced by the water of Qiandao Lake. Qiandao Lake is a national first-level water body, and its water can reach the drinking water standard without any treatment. Such an innate condition ensures that the environment in which the tea trees grow is pure and pollution-free, and gives the finished teas a natural sweet aftertaste.

Natural Oxygen Bar

The annual PM2.5 value of the Qiandao Lake area is lower than 20, where the air is fresh and the forest coverage rate in the lake area is high. The lake itself just like a huge air purifier, for its wide water area can release a large amount of negative oxygen ions every day, so that forms a big natural oxygen bar, and also nourishes the tea trees.

Shrouded by Mist and Clouds

Influenced by the regulation of the lake water, the local area is mist-shrouded, warm and humid all year round; clouds absorb ultraviolet rays to form diffuse lights, which is very favorable to the growth of tea trees and the transformation of its internal materials.
