The Journey

In Baoshan, there is a small village of all-white houses on cobbled streets, set in the valley among the landscape of rolling hills. Here you will find Mr. Ji, his family, and his village—all of whom are behind the inimitable Crescent Green. Though mostly a traditional pu’er cultivator, each year the village produces around a hundred kilograms of beautiful Yunnan green tea. True to pu’er farming: his methods are rustically simple, but effective. The result is a supremely drinkable green tea with honey-like sweetness, low astringency and new terroir. 

The Experience

Tasting notes of Sandalwood, Apricot and Honeycomb.
