Mao Feng (Autumn) Green Tea
£5.50
Mao Feng Autumn Pick Artisan Green Tea
The Autumn pick Mao Feng green tea from our friend Cheng in remote Northern Guizhou Province, China, who ships directly to us from her farm.
The same clean and refreshing notes you’d expect from our Great Taste 2* Award Winning Spring Mao Feng (also from Cheng), brimming with unmissable vegetal & marine notes of spinach and seaweed, with a little less sweetness and aroma.
After brewing, the wet small tender leaves are yellowish green, delicate and light and little holes can be seen in the leaves, from insect bites due to the ecological farming methods. This is often a sign of natural or organic tea production.
With this tea, it’s even difficult to mess it up! That being said, we recommend brewing at 80°c to get the most out of this excellent tea, but slightly higher and for longer brews will bring a stronger, more intense brew, still without bitterness.
We’re proud to say this is an unbelievable green tea at this price 🙂

Add 1 heaped teaspoons per 150ml water (that’s around 2g) and pour on 80°C water (that's about 3-4 minutes off the boil or until you can put a finger on the side of the kettle for about 2 seconds). Discover our Tea Hack for how to get your water to 80°C.
Infuse the tea for around 40 seconds and enjoy. If the flavour isn't quite strong enough for you after a minute, pop the leaves back in til it is to your taste!
Re-infuse 2 - 3 times.
Don’t forget, you can adjust any of the measurements to suit your style!
