• Item No. G28104-1 Tai Ping Hou Kui Tea
• This tea is originated from near one of the most beautiful scenic places called Huang Mountain, Anhui province in China (same province as Keemun’s). Some people call it as Monkey King Green Tea with one bud and two leaves. The leaves are shaped like the tips of spears and parts of the stems are yellowish in color. During its processing, farmers physically iron each tea leaf under a piece of cloth and each huge and flat tea leaf leaves noticeably with crisscross pattern on them. This tea is characterized as fully hand-crafted and truly a sensational work of art. While steeping this tea, you will easily find the slow sinking and floating movements, like spears gathering together. The taste is extraordinarily and wonderfully complex. Nutty at first sip and the sweetness of this tea gradually reveals itself as you continue to drink it. The liquor is a bright, clear, pale green and also has a lingering, sweet aftertaste with a hint of flowery overtones. Tai Ping Hou Kui has won lots of global awards since 1915. And the most current one won the “King of Tea” award in China Tea Exhibition 2004.
