Tong Mu Guan - A region located high in the Wuyi Mountains, also known as the original birthplace of Lapsang Souchong black tea. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site and ecological preserve, teas grown here experience incredible natural biodiversity. Handpicked only once each year, our Wild Black Tea comes from 100-year-old tea trees in Tong Mu Guan. Availability outside of China is extremely limited as most authentic, top-tier teas are reserved for domestic consumption.

Lishan Pear Mountain - Renowned for its high mountain oolong, Lishan also produces black tea. Located at over 1200 meters (3900 feet!), teas grown here have a unique depth of flavor. Each tea leaf is handpicked, as machines cannot be transported up these narrow mountains. Participants will develop their palette through a comparative tasting of different black tea craftsmanship and terroirs from both China and Taiwan.
