This is a green tea from the Tam Duong area in Lai Chau Province, situated in the north-western part of Vietnam. The tea gardens in the locality nestle beneath Fansipan - the highest mountain in Indo-China. The tea is harvested by 2,000 pickers from local ethnic groups. Subsequent production takes place in a modern factory equipped with machinery from Taiwan and Japan. The green leaves create a light green cup, the qualities of which are intense and prolonged, although the body of the tea remains light. Its taste is dominated by umami accompanied by a c reamy note.
