Zijuan Black Tea – Rare Purple Tea from Fengqing’s High-Altitude Ancient Gardens​

Our Zijuan Black Tea is sourced from the core production area of Fengqing, Yunnan, where over 13,000 ancient tea trees thrive at an average altitude of 2,800 meters, as depicted in the pristine natural environment shown in Images 1, 2 and 7. This unique purple-varietal tea is made from carefully selected leaves of ancient trees growing in this optimal ecosystem. The dry tea (Images 3, 5) features dark, tightly rolled leaves with a glossy appearance, while the brewed tea (Image 4) yields a bright, amber-red liquor with a smooth, complex flavor profile. The tender purple-tinged leaves shown in Image 6 highlight the tea’s unique varietal characteristics.
