Mengding Ganlu

Located in Sichauan, Meng Mountain is one of the world's oldest tea-growing region. Ganlu means "sweet dew," a fitting name for the combination of sweet ripe stone fruit aroma and relaxing L-theanine antioxidants in this delectable tea.

Mengding Ganlu is sophisticated, comforting, and refreshing at the same time. It is quite complex for a green, with its traditional chestnut note showcasing its malty, savory, nutty, and sweet character.

Peddler's Note:

My favorite green tea for gongfu cha, when I drink it I get the feeling of diving into a pond—or a tide pool on warm summer day. The first time I tasted Mengding Ganlu, it reminded me of being on the coast in San Diego—Torrey pine trees and salt on the breeze.
