Du Yun Mao Jian – A beautiful and downy green tea from Qiannan Buyi and Miao Autonomous region in Guizhou
Duyun Mao Jian is one of the top 10 famous Chinese Tea, and one of the top 3 famous tea in Gui Zhou. It is also recorded in the Tea Bible by Lu Yu since Tang Dynasty. Duyun, located in the south of Gui Zhou, is the Qiannan Buyi and Miao Autonomous region in Guizhou, a beautiful and remote village where the ethnic minority group lived. “Du Yun” also means “Iridescent Clouds” in Miao language, as its name indicates, Du Yun is high in altitude, with misty and cloudy weather on the high mountain. As Duyun is relatively remote, and the quantity of Du Yun Mao Jian is relatively low, even though this tea is very famous, there are few tea lovers who have really tasted it. Therefore, we purchased a small batch of early spring tea for tea lovers to taste, also to allow more tea lovers to know and taste this historical famous tea.
Du Yun Mao Jian is also named as “fish hook tea” or “white hair tips” as the tea is small and curled like a fish hook with apparent white pekoe. it has a unique characteristic of “Three yellowish-green”, which means its dry leaves, tea soup and wet leaves are both in yellowish-green colour. The young tea of this small batch is harvested in early spring, consisting of one bud one leaf, about 2cm long. The tea are tender and beautiful with a lot of white pekoe, as the content of amino acid is relatively high, it taste very sweet and umami. When you take a sip of the tea, it is soft and refreshing, with floral and nutty notes, you can also find a subtle corn fragrance with lingering “hui gan” aftertaste.
