Tai Ping Hou Kui (太平猴魁) is an original green tea with an unusual shape, meaning "Monkey Leader from Tai Ping." This hand-crafted tea is made by laying out the leaves on a special mesh and pressing them, resulting in its distinctive form.
Aroma: Bright and honeyed, with a characteristic orchid note.
Taste: Rich, thick, broth-like, yet soft and smooth without astringency. It has a pleasant sweet aftertaste.
Effect: Refreshing and invigorating.
Harvest: spring 2025, Anhui Province, China.
Brewing: Do not break the leaves! If they don’t fit in your teapot, simply pour hot water over them. They will soften and fit perfectly. We recommend brewing in a tall glass or a porcelain gaiwan. Cool the water to 70–80°C. Enjoy watching the beautiful dance of the long leaves in the water!
Let customers speak for us
Best Tea I tried in a long time . Def will buy more
Компактный набор, в котором есть все как для начинающих так и для уже опытных людей
Замечательный сервис, быстрая доставка и очень качественный чай, спасибо!
Super friendly staff, a good quality tea
The tea was truly delightful. Its aroma at first reminds me of sunflower, then a gentle sweetness arrives, followed by a soft, warming sensation that carries you into open meadows. Thoughts and worries drift away like distant clouds, restoring balance, and with each infusion the leaves give more than I expected. I recommend it — it soothes the body and supports digestion after a meal.
I think this tea is the most “green” tasting tea for the budget. If you want someone to get introduced to proper green teas (e.g. show that they are killing any green it when pouring hard boiled water), this would be the perfect tea to do so
It is not usual to see tea leaves of green tea to be **that** flat, but other than that — no issues
Great green tea with a hint of lilac aftertaste
Pure flowers! Orchid blossom! Drinks very easily and tasty!
very fast delivery! Bravo
I recommend this genuine black tea to all tea lovers. It's similar to shu puerh, but has a more woody and earthy character.
Интересный темный улун. Я для себя определить что именнов нем меня больше привлекает. Наверное какой-то особый баланс вкусовой гаммы и насыщенности вкуса.
One of my favorite gaba. Fruity, refreshing well enough. I even making it cold brew!
