Jin Jun Mei Black Tea (1.5 oz loose leaf)

Jin Jun Mei Black Tea (1.5 oz loose leaf)

Jin Jun Mei is one of the most beautiful teas in Wuyishan. It is often referred to as "Golden Eyebrow Tea". These spectacular golden buds are harvested by the Li family on their mountain spring-fed plot within the Wuyishan Ecological Preserve. Jin Jun Mei requires more hand-picked buds to make a kilo of finished tea than any other variety out there. The Li Family works together to pick these tiny buds within their short one day picking window while they are still extremely young, tender and downy. The result is a black tea full of intense sweetness, lingering aftertaste and a thick texture. Much lighter than other black teas, Jin Jun Mei is a truly special experience. True hand-picked Wuyi Jin Jun Mei is a rare opportunity, and this tea is only available until each spring harvest sells out.

Li Xiangxi's family works together in Tongmu applying their incredible skill at roasting to their spring-fed high mountain tea. Their proceeds go to teaching rural tea ceremony.

We are very happy to support the farmers who produced this tea.
