Although not as widely known as its counterpart, Jin Jun Mei( Golden Eyebrow tea), Yin Jun Mei (Silver Eyebrow tea) is a highly cost-effective option. In fact, compared to Golden Eyebrow, Silver Eyebrow offers great value. Apart from the harvesting process, all other standards remain the same as Golden Eyebrow. What sets this particular Guyu Silver Eyebrow apart is that it is harvested from tea trees that are mostly over 100 years old in the prestigious region of Tong Mu Guan, resulting in a more mellow and sweet tea flavor.
Harveseted In April 2022 (on the day of the lunisolar term Guyu), a cup of Spring Bud Dew is truly the epitome of the finest teas. Is made from pure wild Wuyi Cai Cha (cultivar) grown in the deep mountains of Tong. The tea trees have an average age of over 100 years and thrive in the rugged wilderness, nestled by the mountains. They draw sustenance from the veins of heaven and earth, embodying the essence of natural growth and the untamed spirit of the wilderness. Each year, on the day of Gu Yu, a small batch of this Silver Jun Mei is produced, fulfilling tea Master Li's personal preference for this exquisite tea.
Why Guyu? The tea records of the Ming Dynasty state: Qingming comes too early, Li Xia comes too late, and around Guyu, the timing is just right. In the deep forests of the tea mountains, among the towering ancient pines, countless leaves hold the colors of countless springs. Traveling through thousands of mountains, it reaches directly to your taste buds, delivering a touch of sweetness to your heart in the scorching summer. After drinking a cup of Guyu Silver Junmei, your taste buds will become more discerning, won't they? This tea can be enjoyed both as a cold brew or hot infusion, enhancing its sweetness.
