Wuyuan Maojian has consistently been regarded as the finest among Wuyuan green teas. It is primarily made from tender leaves of the tea plant, undergoing deep processing and hand-frying to be meticulously crafted. As the tender leaves are covered with fine hairs, after being fried into green tea, they appear small, pointed, and downy, which is why the common people prefer to call it 'Maojian'. Its exceptional taste makes it a premium product!
Wuyuan Maojian is refined from early spring tea buds grown in the high mountains of Wuyuan. It features a delicate appearance with plump, even buds tipped with fine hairs, and leaves that are golden-yellow in color. The tea has a tender, glossy green hue, a fresh and clear aroma, and a bright, apricot-yellow liquor. Its flavor is mellow and sweet with a lingering aftertaste, while the brewed leaves form whole, thick, and vibrant buds.
The finished tea has a delicate, flat, and curved shape, abundant fine hairs, and a glossy, smooth appearance. When brewed, a light mist lingers above the cup, offering a mellow, sweet taste and a lasting, fresh aroma.
Wuyuan is characterized by high mountains, dense forests, and a warm, humid climate, providing exceptionally favorable natural conditions. The tea trees benefit from the nourishment of clouds and mist, free from the extremes of cold and heat, which contributes to their excellent quality.
