The tea leaves used for this production are obtained from a naturally grown tea plantation at an altitude of 2000m, without pesticides or fertilizers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eIt has a sweet, mellow aroma reminiscent of peach or sweet potato, and has a memorable creamy mouthfeel that is unique to high mountain tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e It is made using the first tea of ​​the spring and has a very soft texture, so even if you are hungry and drink several cups, it won't upset your stomach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n This tea also goes well with milk tea. We recommend brewing it with a lot of milk. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"letter-spacing: 2px; border-bottom: 1px solid #e8e9eb; padding-bottom: 12px;\"\u003e Product Details \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/68EA7F7C-21F9-45F2-AA9E-ED89CD4CCE85.png?v=1614651079\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"letter-spacing: 2px; border-bottom: 1px solid #e8e9eb; padding-bottom: 12px;\"\u003e A rare purple tea even in Yunnan\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e In the southwest of Lincang City, Yunnan Province, there is a tea called purple tea. This tea is only cultivated in a small area, so purple tea is very rare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e There are many different types of wild tea in the Lincang region, and some of them are characteristically very similar to purple tea. It is therefore speculated that purple tea originated from wild tea varieties that were cultivated by ethnic minorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eIncidentally, there is a variety of tea in Shisobanna called Shikincha, but this variety is morphologically completely different from this tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e While the entire leaves of Purple Silk Tea are purple and have a bitter taste, Lincang Purple Tea looks the same as regular tea at first glance, except for the slightly purple stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Mysteriously, purple tea changes to a very deep indigo color when it is processed. HOJO purchased purple tea in 2014 and 2015, processed it into raw Pu-erh tea and sold it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/210B1FDD-FC3A-42E9-A6E7-9E437123053F.png?v=1614651132\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/B4BFFA18-3BAC-4BD2-B886-9F2864DF8B5A.png?v=1614651152\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"letter-spacing: 2px; border-bottom: 1px solid #e8e9eb; padding-bottom: 12px;\"\u003e I've heard it's delicious! We produce black tea to order\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The areas where purple tea is cultivated are extremely limited, and even within Lincang City, purple tea is only grown in some mountain villages in Zhenkang and Yongde counties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Because the raw materials themselves are very limited, I have never seen purple tea processed into any tea other than raw Pu-erh tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eHowever, a few years ago, I heard a producer I work with say, \"I tried the black tea made from purple tea and it was delicious.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Apparently, his friend tried making it and found it to be very unique and delicious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e This story intrigued me so I came up with a plan to make black tea from purple tea by custom ordering it from a skilled tea master who owned his own black tea production facilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e In addition to the limited availability of raw materials, tea production in 2017 was very low due to dry weather, making it very difficult to obtain raw materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Although the final volume was less than expected, we succeeded in turning purple tea into black tea through high-precision processing.
