The southern Chinese province of Yunnan is known for Pu Erh teas in particular. Furthermore some traditional cultivation and processing methods for the production of white and yellow tea are also maintained.

"The extraordinary scent of the Yue Guang Bai is unparalleled, the outside shape is bizarre, the upper leaves are white, the lower leaves are black, as if the moonlight (= Yue Guang) is shining on the leaf buds."

TEAS FROM THE MENGHAI ORGANIC TEA PROJECT

ORGANIC YUNNAN YUE GUANG BAI

Our organic Yue Guang Bai (also called Yue Guang Meiren) is grown and processed in the southern Chinese province of Yunnan. Its leaves are harvested from tall, historic Qing Mao tea trees, which are commonly used for the production of Pu Erh tea. In spring the closed leaf buds and some leaves are harvested early in the morning and are then dried gently. Our organic Yue Guang Bai is cultivated under fair conditions.
