NOTE:
• Packaging Update: Please be informed that effective from June 8, 2022, our tea packaging features a “Dog” design, in alignment with the Zodiac year. However, the quality and blend of the tea remain unchanged. The 2020 batch, which corresponds to the Zodiac Rat year, is temporarily housed in this new design. We anticipate reverting to our original packaging once it becomes available again.
• Heritage Wrapping Varieties: Originally, this tea was encased in four distinct wrappers, symbolizing the revered “Si Jun Zi” or “Four Gentlemen” in Chinese culture, representing “Mei” (Plum), “Lan” (Orchid), “Zhu” (Bamboo), and “Ju” (Chrysanthemum). Current purchases will include one of these traditional designs randomly, ensuring the same exceptional tea quality within each.
• Our Commitment to Your Experience: We hope you will appreciate both the tea and the selected wrapper, enhancing your tea experience with us.
