The pictures on this page show where the Xinyang Mao Jian Tea was picked this spring. In the northern part of China's tea producing region is Henan Province. The most famous Henan tea is known as Xinyang Mao Jian, which means Fur Tips from Xinyang. Henan people, and especially Xinyang people, believe that there is no tea as good as the best Xinyang Mao Jian. Xinyang Mao Jian Tea has fresh vegetable tones, but it is the aroma of light roasted hazelnuts that really setsit apart from other teas. This tea has a truly refreshing taste that is full of aroma..

Brewing instruction: Use 3-4 grams of Mao Jian tea leaves and water just below boiling temperature (around 80 degrees Celsius).  First rinse the tea once for washing, and afterwards you can steep the tea up to five or six times. Infuse the tea anywhere from a few seconds to one minute depending on your personal taste. Remember keep a layer of water in the glass to avoid causing the tea to dry out and lose its taste.

The leaves of this tea will sink to the bottom of a glass container, therefore it's possible to use a glass cup to drink this tea. Xinyang Mao Jian Tea can be steeped 3 to 4 times while maintaining its excellent taste. Since northern China has a relatively cold climate, the harvest season for Xinyang Mao Jian Tea is relatively late and the leaves are smaller. Our Xinyang Mao Jian is the 2011 harvest from the mountains of Xinyang.
