Xinyang Maojian: Needle-Leaf Tea From Where the Mountains Get Snow
The green tea from Henan's Dabie Mountains with needle-fine leaves, roasted chestnut aroma, and an aftertaste that lasts twenty minutes.
Unoxidized, fresh, grassy — the most diverse and widely consumed tea category in China.
The green tea from Henan's Dabie Mountains with needle-fine leaves, roasted chestnut aroma, and an aftertaste that lasts twenty minutes.

Grown on mist-shrouded peaks, picked as tiny sparrow-tongue buds. The green tea that taught me subtlety.

Rolled into tight spirals, covered in silver down, and grown among fruit trees on a lake island in Suzhou.

Green, oolong, black, white, yellow, dark — what they actually taste like and which one you should start with.

The first time I saw Longjing leaves hit hot water, I was twenty-three and standing in a tea house on West Lake.
