A latecomer from spring 2024, our 2024 Windfall is well worth the wait. This tea comes from Guafengzhai Chapingdi area material that has had plenty of time to rest and is in an excellent place right now. This tea delivers a pleasant sweetness throughout, with an excellent huigan coming through after taking a sip. A good example of “forest tea”, this tea comes from an excellent environment, as Guafengzhai is a healthy several hours drive down the road from Yiwu town, hugging the border with Laos. This remoteness contributes to the tea’s deep, floral fragrance and mouth-filling texture. $0.65/gram Region: Guafengzhai, Yiwu, Xishuangbanna Prefecture Picking Period: April 2-7
