This lot comes in its original bag marked with batch number "111". This tea is primarily sourced from the border of North Vietnam and is made from Grade 5 to 9 large tea leaves, with aging performance similar to Yin Grade Pu-er. In the 1970s, Yunnan Qing Mao tea was expensive and scarce in Hong Kong, leading tea merchants to purchase large quantities. In late 1990s, as Hong Kong teahouses began clearing out their stock and many of these entered the Taiwanese market, Qing Mao tea became increasingly rare and precious over the years. Northern Vietnam shares similar geographical and climatic conditions with Yunnan, particularly in the border areas, where the quality of raw materials is comparable to that from well-known tea mountains in Yunnan. Consequently, teas from these regions generally inherit the craftsmanship of Yunnan Pu-er but differ in flavor and quality due to their distinct production areas.
