Description
Hou Kui green, originating in 1900, is known as one of China’s top ten most renowned teas. It is sourced along the Huangshan Mountain at elevations above 1200 meters, the same as our Nonpareil Te Gong Huang Shan Mao Feng. The area where this tea is planted, Hou Keng, has a steadily cloudy climate and suitable sunshine that results in an excellent environment for both the trees themselves as well as the traditional manual production method, which gives this tea a unique appearance and flavor.
This kind of Nonpareil, or Tea King Tai Ping Hou Kui, is a purely hand-made green. The ‘Tea King’ in its name means that it is the highest quality and highest grade of other Tai Ping Hou Kui types, which itself is already one of the highest grades as one of Chinese top ten green teas.
