Basic introduction of Meng'er tea

Meng'er tea is produced in the deep mountainous area of Xuefeng Mountain Range at an altitude of over 1800 meters - Meng'er Chong, Fengjia Mountain, Xinhua County, Hunan Province. Meng'er tea has a long history and has been produced and famous since the Tang Dynasty. Princess Wencheng brought Meng'er tea when she married in Xizang. During the Later Liang Dynasty, it was already listed as tribute tea and passed down from generation to generation

Meng'er tea is specially made and carefully selected using ancient methods. Its appearance is fine and tightly curved, its color is emerald green, its white hair is exposed, its soup color is clear, its aroma is elegant and long-lasting, its taste is mellow and fresh, and the leaves are tender and bright at the bottom. When brewed, the tender buds float up and down in the cup, appearing and disappearing like a girl in the clouds, making people imagine and feel relaxed, and its flavor is unique

Meng'er tea is produced in the deep mountainous area of the Xuefeng Mountains at an altitude of over 1800 meters - Meng'er Chong, Fengjia Mountain, Xinhua County, Hunan Province. This place is characterized by high mountains and deep valleys, with clouds and mist like the sea, many streams and clear springs, high humidity, steep rocks and slopes that can block the sun, lush bamboo and trees, deep and fertile soil layers, and mainly organic fertilizers (farm manure and rapeseed cakes) for fertilization. The temperature difference between day and night is large, the wind is clean and moist, and there is no pollution. In such a unique natural environment, tea trees are shrouded in high mountain clouds and mist all day long, resulting in leaves that are rich in fertilizer and juice, and are long-lasting and resistant to soaking. What's even more peculiar is that the tea picking season coincides with the blooming season of orchids that cover the mountains and fields here. The fragrance of the flowers makes Meng'er tea particularly fragrant and unique in flavor. According to the basic characteristics of tea tree growth, famous teas throughout history have been mostly produced in the misty and mountainous areas of high mountains. Professor Chen Chuan clearly pointed out in the "Selected Works of Chinese Famous Tea Research" that famous teas must have superior geographical conditions, and defined high mountains as those with an altitude of 500-2000 meters. Fengjia Town is located in the middle section of the Xuefeng Mountain Range, with a typical mountainous terrain, lush trees, and fertile land. Under its jurisdiction are three districts along the Qujiang River, including Fengjia, Shuanglin, and Shangtuan, with an altitude of 500-1400 meters, an average annual temperature of 20-22 degrees, a relative humidity of over 80%, short sunshine, sufficient rainfall, warm winters and cool summers, and year-round clouds and mist. Based on the growth characteristics of tea trees that prefer shade and humidity, it is very suitable for the growth of tea trees. Moreover, the "Meng'er Tea" produced in the Ming and Qing dynasties, which is clearly recorded in history, fully demonstrates the unique geographical environment of Fengjia and the superior quality of Fengjia tea
