From Verdant Tea

he 2019 spring harvest of this tea is here! Daping is the birthplace of the Maoxie (Hairy Crab) varietal, and the village is proud of its heritage. We are excited to offer this reserve harvest of high elevation Mao Xie from Master Zhang in Daping. This year’s light traditional finish brings out layers of complexity in the beautiful leaves over many steepings.

Got a sample of this and I’m gonna have to get a larger portion once there’s room in my tea chest! Man I wish I could use curse words to describe this. What a striking rendition of Mao Xie- this hits all of the notes you expect in grand fashion. Wheat crackers predominate, giving this a full body, accented by cinnamon and cut grass, with a little lemon or pear, finishing with chamomile and spring meadow. Sweet-smelling steam with a vegetal undertone sets the mood. The leaves unfurl beautifully, which in my opinion is a highlight of hairy crab.
