Huang Shan Mao Feng or "Yellow Mountain Fur Peak" for the pointed shape of its bud and one leaf which are still covered with velvety white fur, resembling a frozen mountain peak. It's so precious that in the Anhui region of China, where it groves on the foggy Yellow Mountain, is considered as a National treasure. It's a spring green tea hand plucked before the Quingming Festival and stabilized by using hot air to keep its natural freshenss and avoid any toasty or nutty note. The result is a refreshing sweet liquor with a vegetal flavour of row spring peas at first, enriched from a hint of a delicate aromatic floral note and a touch of a mineral umami lingering In the mouth. I paired it with a delicious taiwanese taro mochi and seved in a little puple glazed chinese tea pot, a present from my friend Choi. #instatea #huangshanmaofeng #greentea #chinesegreentea #teasommelier #teaexpert #teatasting #arteavenice #arteagabriellascarpa #taromochi
