Product line Discovery
A refined Chinese green tea known for its soft, floral character and light sweetness. Mao Feng yields a clear infusion with fresh spring notes, where blossoms, young leaves, and a subtle honey tone come together.
The name Mao Feng—literally “hairy peaks”—refers to the fine, downy leaves picked early in the season. Careful processing preserves the tea’s elegant structure and natural softness.

The Breath of Spring
Mao Feng literally means “hairy peaks”, referring to the young tea leaves harvested in early spring and covered with fine, silvery down. This delicate fuzz protects the leaf and contributes to the tea’s soft, refined character.
Mao Feng originates in the hills of Anhui, where misty mornings and cool temperatures slow the plant’s growth. Only the first buds and leaves of the season are picked. Minimal processing and careful heating preserve the tea’s fresh, spring-like expression.
In the cup, Mao Feng is light and open. Floral notes, young leaf, and subtle sweetness come together in a clear infusion without sharpness. This is a tea of beginnings and promise — a moment when nature is still quiet, yet already unfolding.
