Guizhou Fuzzy Tip

Green Tea by Tea Trekker

Although we have encountered this lovely tea in China, this is the first time that we have had Du Yun Mao Jian for sale. It’s one bud-one leaf plucking standard is reminiscent of the appearance of Pan Long Yin Hao ( Dragon Whiskers ). It has an earthy, woodsy flavor that makes me think of Xin Yang Mao Jian: both of these teas possess a straightforward, minerally-backbone that is very pleasing, and a telltale clue to their western China origin. Du Yun Mao Jian is from Guizhou Province, a place of fascination and wonder that is populated by several of China’s colorful ethnic minority groups who are known for elaborate silver jewelry, embroidery and textile arts.

Steep 2-3 infusions at 2 minutes each.
Water temperature should be 170° – 180° F

This is a pretty good tea with a earthy, grassy taste to it
