Yunnan Fengqing Maofeng is a red tea produced in the Fengqing area of Yunnan that bears many similarities to another product in our catalog called Imperial Yunnan Fengqing. Both of these teas have very small leaves harvested in early spring but this one in particular has fewer buds. Another slightly less obvious feature that differentiates these two products is how their leaves have been folded. In this case we have a twisting of the leaves similar to that which characterizes Maofeng while in the case of Imperial Fengqing a technique was used which makes the leaves more needle-like and less twisted. Although small, these differences mentioned so far still lead to a significant difference in the taste of these two teas. For this reason we invite you, if possible, to take both products so you will have the opportunity to experience the effects of these differences through your taste.
