Dongshan Xiufeng

Dongshan Xiufeng

　　The famous tea "Dongshan Xiufeng" is named for its round and straight shape, emerald green color, and prominent tender buds that resemble beautiful mountain peaks. When brewed, the tea liquor is clear and bright, with a high and lasting delicate aroma, a fresh and brisk taste, and a sweet aftertaste. The leaves at the bottom are clean, green, and tender. It features tightly rolled straight leaves, emerald green color, high and lasting fragrance, and a sweet taste. A local saying goes, "Dongshan Peak tea, Dongshan Peak water—crystal-clear springs that even immortals would get drunk on."

　　Dongshan Xiufeng is produced at the Dongshanfeng Farm in Shimen County, Hunan Province. The Dongshanfeng area features majestic mountains and overlapping peaks covered in lush greenery. Quality characteristics include a flat and straight shape, emerald green color resembling beautiful peaks, light green and bright tea liquor, high and lasting delicate aroma, a fresh and brisk taste with a sweet aftertaste, and tender, bright, and clean leaves.

　　The raw materials for the famous tea "Dongshan Xiufeng" come from high-quality tea gardens located over 1,200 meters above sea level at the Dongshanfeng base. The tea is carefully handpicked and meticulously processed. Only tender one-bud-one-leaf early-spread fresh leaves are used as raw material, and the tea is refined through processes such as withering, fixing, rolling, shaping, straightening, tipping, and charcoal roasting.
