Gold Thread Reserve is our finest Chinese black tea, cultivated in Fengqing County of Yunnan Province. This tea is crafted solely from young leaf buds, individually harvested by hand to deliver complex aromatics, sweetness, and a beautifully persistent finish. Developed in the late 1930's, Gold Thread Reserve is alternatively known as Jin Si Dian Hong. Jin Si means "gold silk"... →

Peaking at 2200 meters above sea level, Lishan is the third... →

One of our more popular herbals, Peppermint Rose is a very simple blend of peppermint leaves and rose petals. The inspiration came from mint teas from Morocco that are sometimes served with a few drops of rose water. →

Wenshan, the range of mountains that surround Taipei in northern Taiwan produces a type of oolong that is twisted rather than rolled. It's a crafting style that hearkens to an earlier time in tea making, and actually predates the rolled oolongs for which Taiwan is known. Called Baozhongs or "Pouchongs",... →
