Spring 2024, ecological plantations of Fa Tang village near Fa Zhan He town Lively daily drinker with a good bite This Fa Zhan He tea is even better than the 2023 version, we selected the better gardens of this high altitude area. It features a balanced taste with a bit of everything you'd expect in a pu-erh tea, excellent choice for beginners or as a daily drinker. Fa Zhan He is a town located close to Jingmai Mountain, we can see its western mountain range from our tea table. We discovered Fa Tang in 2021, it is a hamlet in the North of Fa Zhan He. A large tea plantation was established decades ago, it seemingly went bankrupt and the gardens were bought by various locals. The tea trees grow between 1900m and 2100m, this is as high as it can get for conventional tea plantations. The low temperatures allow for an easy management without the use of pesticides because the pest and disease pressure is low under such a climate. The drawback to such a high altitude is the low yield, but this is good for producing the tea we're looking for. The place is remote and unremarkable, it has no reputation whatsoever in the puerh tea industry, this is what makes it a good price for value.
