A very special tea from Sơn La province in northwest Vietnam.
 
This is a tea from one of the best ancient tree gardens deep in the forest in Bắc Yên district of Sơn La province. This tea was produced in a H'Mông village not far from the border of Yên Bái province.
 
Aggressive but with a gentleness, this tea brews up a thick floral sweet liquor. The moderate+ astringency and bitterness pairs really well with the heavy sweetness and kiss of smoke from the wok. A nice minerality also adds an interesting aspect to this tea.
 
You can expect this tea to go many rounds. Great tea for a bigger session with friends.
 
Rich, lasting Huigan with a strong focused qi.
