Laifeng Vine Tea – 2026 First-Pick Bud Tea Now Available

SPRING ARRIVAL

Craftsmanship Meets the Season

With spring winds crossing the Wuling Mountains and mist rising over ancient vines, Laifeng Vine Tea proudly announces the release of the 2026 First-Pick Bud Tea – a limited seasonal offering crafted by hand and heart.

HAND-HARVESTED WITH CARE

The First Standard: Quality from the Start

The value of First-Pick Bud Tea begins with strict raw material selection:

Morning harvest: Picked by hand before morning dew evaporates

One bud with one leaf: Only the tenderest shoots are selected

Immediate delivery: Fresh leaves are rushed to the factory

Upon arrival, every batch is sorted and spread for wilting. Impurities and older leaves are removed, leaving only the plumpest, freshest buds.

PRECISION PROCESSING

Where Tradition Meets Modern Standards

Processing takes place in a standardized dust-free workshop, where workers in full sanitary gear follow a carefully controlled sequence:

Withering → Fixing → Rolling → Fermenting → Drying

Temperature, humidity, and timing are precisely managed at every step. Workers hand-turn and gently knead the leaves through repeated cycles – encouraging the natural flavonoid content to rise to the leaf surface.

The result: a fine, natural white frosting that signals high flavonoid concentration.

THE TRADE BEHIND THE TEA

Overtime and Dedication

To deliver the freshest possible spring tea, production teams work in rotating shifts – ensuring that every batch is processed promptly while maintaining strict quality standards. Each package represents hours of skilled hand labor and careful oversight.

CUP CHARACTERISTICS

Appearance, Aroma, and Taste

Dry leaf: Tight, slender strands covered with a visible white frost

Liquor: Clear, bright, with a yellow-green tint

Flavor: A gentle initial bitterness, followed by a long, sweet, and clean finish

Each cup carries the fresh vitality of the Wuling Mountain highlands.
