Emei Maofeng is a premium loose-leaf Chinese green tea from Sichuan Province, China. As one of our favorite Pre-Qing Ming green teas, it is prized for its fresh and delicate flavor. Among the earliest plucked teas in China, Emei Maofeng is renowned for its exceptional quality. Grown on Emei Shan, one of China’s four sacred Buddhist mountains, the tea plants flourish in the cool, thin air of high elevations, surrounded by bamboo forests. These forests provide nourishing moisture, known as clouds and mist, which enhance the tea's flavor and richness.
