“The handful of young raws I’ve had from Jing Mai in the past have all made me conclude that I didn’t particularly like the general characteristic they shared. Despite this I actually bought a cake...” Read full tasting note
Jing Mai Mountain is situated in Lancang County of Simao (now renamed Pu’Er) prefecture. Jing Mai teas are incredibly unique as a large portion of the tea trees are a unique natural hybrid of Assamica that are referred to as Mixed-Leaf varietal (中小叶种). They are tippy, with smaller and shorter leaf/bud sets than pure assamica. This adds to the sweetness and aroma of the tea immensely.
Our production is from Wan Mu area of Jing Mai and age of trees varies from 60 to 200 years. The trees grow naturally and are not sprayed.
