The tea field is located in a very beautiful, mountainous terrain at an altitude of well over 3000m, which ensures a particularly high quality of tea buds. Due to the climatic conditions (a lot of rain, overcast skies, cooler temperatures), the first buds sprout relatively late in the year, in mid-May, which also marks the time of the first harvest of the year. The highland terroir offers ideal conditions with steep slopes and good drainage. Another special feature is that the buds come from tea trees that are up to 50 years old.
The jasmine blossoms used for fragrancing are sourced from the acclaimed "jasmine region" of Heng in Guangxi Province, Southwestern China. Numerous farmers cultivate jasmine on over 10 hectares of land there. Exquisite jasmine has been grown in the region for centuries.
