Chinese Premium Yellow Mountain Huangshan Green Peony Green Tea High Mountain Tea 50g 6 Sachets

What's Green Peony?

Huangshan Green Peony is a specialty blooming tea—a type of shaped green tea. The dry leaves are hand-tied into small, dark green floral buds that slowly unfurl in hot water, resembling a peony in full bloom. Created in 1986 by tea expert Wang Fangsheng in Shexian County, Anhui Province, it stands as an innovative masterpiece within the green tea category.

Where is Green Peony from?

It is produced at an altitude of approximately 1,000 meters in the area spanning Huangyinkeng, Shangyangjian, and Xianrenshi in Daguyun Township, She County, located on the southern slopes of Mount Huangshan in Anhui Province. The region features towering mountains and dense forests with rolling peaks; it is shrouded in mist and clouds year-round, enjoys abundant rainfall and fertile soil, and boasts an exceptional ecological environment.

About Green Peony Tea Craftsmanship

The shaping and baking process for "Huangshan Green Peony" tea requires careful execution. The aesthetically shaped "Green Peony" tea blossoms are arranged on a press plate with appropriate spacing between them, and then a second press plate—weighing approximately 100 jin (50 catties)—is applied for six seconds. Next, the shaped tea blossoms are transferred onto a specialized bamboo baking ring; a lid is secured tightly over the assembly, and the baking begins. Precise control of the heat is essential. "Mastering the heat relies entirely on years of accumulated experience; it is difficult to articulate clearly, and there are no specific numerical data to reference."
