Experience the Artistry of Master Zhang's Yancha
Visiting Master Zhang in Wuyishan revealed a profound passion for tea, where his meticulous process transcends craft and becomes art. We're honored to share two remarkable teas from his hands:
2023 Rougui: A vibrant, medium-roast (75%) Rou Gui, with a nutty, fruity and mineral abundent profile.
2021 Shui Xian: A beautifully developed, medium-high roast (80%) Shui Xian, offering depth and warmth.
True to his philosophy, Master Zhang's teas come from mountain plantations nurtured naturally, free from pesticides and additives. Taste the dedication in every cup.
