High in the mountains of Longsheng, tea trees grow the way they always have. Slowly. Wild. Unforced.
These mountain-grown teas have been praised since the Qing Dynasty, shaped by misty air, cool temperatures, and mineral-rich soil. These conditions allow the leaves to develop slowly, resulting in a tea that is clean and smooth, gently vegetal, with a soft nuttiness and a naturally refreshing finish.
For generations, the Red Yao people have harvested and enjoyed tea from these slopes daily, as part of a life rooted in balance, simplicity, and respect for nature. Within the community, this tea is valued for its naturally detoxifying, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties, not as a trend, but as a quiet constant.
Our Heirloom Tea is sourced from this region and offered in its purest form. No additives. No shortcuts. Just leaves shaped by mountain air, rich soil, and time itself.
Grown, harvested, packaged, and sold by the Red Yao community.
How to Drink This Tea
-
Add 1–2 teaspoons of tea leaves to a cup or teapot.
-
Pour hot water (just below boiling) over the leaves and steep for 2–3 minutes.
-
Strain and enjoy. The leaves can be re-steeped 2–3 times.
Drink it warm. Drink it slowly.
