Tieguanyin Dark Roast 'Monkey Picked'

• Harvest: Spring 2024
• Oxidation: 60-70%
• Production: 20 Hour Charcoal Roast
• Farming: Traditional Farming

While this tea is not actually picked by monkeys, those who harvest this tea from Treasure Mountain’s precarious 70-degree slopes at exceedingly high elevations must possess incredible skill and care. Here, the altitude, fog, and light spring rains are met with perfect four-directional winds that together create ideal conditions for pest resistance and optimal growth. The custom 20-hour roast imbues a deep caramel body that carries pervasive notes of warming spices and an intoxicating aroma.
