This is a small farmer production that doesn't involve wet piling. It was grown in a small Hei Shan area garden (Wuzhou, Guangxi) at an altitude of 600 meters, and then plucked, withered, and cured using a smoky fire! Wood-smoke, and sweet with a caramel and roasted corn character! An incredibly unique offering that is a good choice for those who love smoky teas! This is very smoky, but doesn't taste burned at all! Can be purchased in 400 gram baskets or in lesser quantities without the basket! 2016 April Harvest
