  • Clouds and Mist, or Yun Wu, is a high-quality Chinese green tea from the high mountains of Zhenghe County in Fujian Province. The name Yun Wu translates to Clouds and Mist, referring to the frequent condensation in these high-altitude areas with higher humidity, an ideal environment for cultivating fine tea. Crafted from the local Xiao Cai Cha cultivar, Yun Wu tea is known for its thick, viscous taste. The fresh leaves are meticulously processed to preserve their natural aroma, resulting in a tea free from the typical green taste, with a pronounced bean and chestnut fragrance.

    Yun Wu tea is prized for its fresh, slightly sweet flavor with a hint of floral notes. The tightly rolled leaves give the tea a unique appearance. When brewed, it produces a pale green liquor with a fresh, crisp taste that is both invigorating and soothing. This tea has a long history dating back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD) and has been praised in various historical texts for its superior quality and health benefits.
