Qing Mei Shan is a remote mountain area in Yong De county of Lincang.  The tea trees here are 100-300 years old and have been growing wild for centuries.  It's a very pure tea with buttery thick mouthfeel, pungent floral can sugarcane aroma with an ass-kicking cha qi that betrays it's wildness.

An amazing tea with strength and balance.  Will be enjoyable to drink now and every day into the future.

Strong Tea!

"Tasted in January 2019: The first steep has already a dark yellow color. The first steeps tastes very sweet, it reminds me of sugarcane. There is no astringency, but in the following steeps I could taste some slight bitterness behind the sweetness, which is complimented with nice notes of fruit beginning with steep number 3. Later steeps also add a silky mouthfeel. After drinking this tea I can definitely feel the Qi, it's a strong one!"

Whityn (5/5)

Very Energizing

"Really enjoyed this tea. Many short infusions. Quite strong cha qi. Spicy -fruity (cinnamon, cardomon, dried apricots) in nose and somewhat bready-fruity on palate. Quite smooth with little astringency. Nice bitterness. Enjoyable after 12 infusions!"
