About Our Mengding-Ganlu

Why is it called Mengding Ganlu?

This tea is produced in Mengding Mountain, Sichuan, and is named after its tea soup is as sweet as the refreshing dew.

The origin of Mengding Ganlu?

During the Western Han Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago, Wu Lizhen, the ancestor of tea planting, planted seven tea trees on the Mengding Mountain in Sichuan, which started the history of artificial tea cultivation. Here, the drizzle is hazy all year round, and the annual precipitation is more than 2000mm, which is very suitable for the growth of tea trees. In the folk, Mengshan tea is regarded as a divine thing to cure diseases, so Mengding tea with a long history is also called "fairy tea".
For many tea lovers, tasting this cup of tea soup from the ancient Chinese tea tree means the beginning of the new year of tea.

While other tea areas in China were still quiet, but the temperature in Sichuan had already warmed up, and the tea on Mengding Mountain had buds. The spring tea before the Ming Dynasty is the most precious and rare.
Purely hand-picked single buds, wrapped in rich and dense tea, the soup color is blue and clear, the taste is fresh and sweet like dew, and the teeth and cheeks are fragrant.

There is a small tea mountain in Dali, Yunnan,
Located at an altitude of 2668 meters,
Clouds and sunlight cover each tea tree at the same time.
Every tea bud is a wild child bred by heaven and earth.
The unique environment affects the growth and development of tea,
and the long history has bred ancient tea trees that can be seen everywhere.
In the distance, there are undulating mountains,
There are also clouds and mist drifting in the mountains.
The so-called clouds and mist entering the cup are the true portrayal of the tea here.

Best organic tea + Best tea making process

The owner of the tea garden told us that he has adhered to the agricultural production method following the laws of nature for many years, based on the maintenance of soil vitality and main soil cultivation, and never used any chemical fertilizers, pesticides and Various growth regulators and any additions that are harmful to the soil are used to plant and maintain tea gardens.

Although in Chinese natural farms, this can be called a textbook-like existence. But for him, these are only the duties of the producer.

We explored this real natural tea garden, walked into it, and discovered its magic

What amazes us is that the fertilizer used in the tea garden comes from the excrement of cattle and black goats raised in the tea mountain.
In this farm, he created an ecosystem where all creatures and life share. The fungi, mosses, all kinds of wild herbs, and alpine rhododendrons here are all kinds, making people feel like they have strayed into the tropical rainforest.Among them, the tea tree occupies only one-third. The 600-mu mountain has an annual output of only 4,000 jin, which is very small for the common Yunnan tea mountains.
