Single Origin

We only buy our teas from a single origin, from the same farm and the same year.

Why Buy Wild?

First you must understand what the difference is between a commercially farmed tea and wild tea:

Our teas are grown on one single estate. Meaning in a bag of tea that you purchase you can be assured it is one single kind of tea from the same harvest. Unlike many commercially farmed teas that use teas from different batches and harvests and even different grades confusing and distorting the pure flavor.

Imagine an agile old tea picker plucking fresh leaves on the side of a steep mountain. We call this monkey picked tea because it takes skill and agility. Our teas are gathered by hand high on the mountain side by the local villagers and families that have been harvesting tea for years. Commercially farmed teas generally use large machinery to cut the tea.

Some of our teas like our Wild Snow tea is hand rolled and roasted over hot charcoals giving the tea a unique rich taste. To save money and time commercial farms mostly use machines for everything and use a hot air dryer to dry the tea so the tea loses important flavors and the amount of time it can brew decreases.

Our tea plantations are looked over by true tea masters. For example, Our Wild Snow tea is cultivated by the same family that has been using the same techniques for over 800 years on the same mountain. Our Wuyi Mountain Rock tea is cared for by a secret sect of Taoist monks. Compare that to the commercial farms where they are usually owned by a large company with little or no care for the tea itself and just seeing profits. Most of them do not even know how to cultivate tea.

  Wild Snow Sprout is hand-picked from over 4,500 feet high from the mountains of Yunnan Province. Only in the past few years, local people found this tea growing naturally in the wild. It is a wild Sai Qing green tea which is very difficult to find even in China. The unique aroma and flavor of this sun-dried green tea can only be captured during one brief harvest between March and April and consists of only large, silvery-white bud tips from Yunnan’s broad leaf, ancient tea trees.

Description Wild Snow Sprout has a rich honey-like flavor and floral, fruity finish. The special processing method allows the tea to be brewed up to 12 times.
