01

Identity and origin

Huangshan Maofeng is an Anhui spring green tea associated with the misty Huangshan region and a gently curved, downy leaf style.

02

Craft and leaf style

Tender plucks are fixed and lightly rolled or shaped so the leaf remains relatively whole. Drying aims to preserve a clean floral and fresh-grain profile.

03

Aroma, taste and texture

Expect gentle orchid, sweet pea, chestnut and clean vegetal notes with a soft, refreshing finish.

Practical guidance

Try 2-3g per 250ml at 80-85°C for about 90 seconds.

Identification and caution

Do not judge only by bud count. Aroma cleanliness, liquor balance and accurate regional labeling matter more.
