The Journey

Created by Mr. Lu, this is a crafted lot that represents the harmonious hand-in-hand of human, nature, and time. Tiny aphids bite the leaves, producing an aroma reminiscent of Bai Hao. Mr. Lu plucks the leaves at the peak of summer; the leaves are left to gently wither. Possessing an uncanny rosiness and plush mouthfeel, Clear Heart White is a lovely gift we are honored to share.

He is currently clearing land (with a steam shovel) for a Bed and Breakfast in his gardens. s of a breakthrough emerged in the 2000s.
