Smokey Shan Tea

About the tea
A precious kind of tea
Each product of ancient tea in Minh Lam is selected from 200-600-year-old Snow Shan tea trees in the Northwest high mountains of Vietnam. Those tea trees grow at more than 1600m above sea level, grow deep in the jungle, and are almost unaffected by humans.
Meticulous production
From harvesting to processing, it requires the thoroughness and dedication of artisans with rich experience and knowledge of Snow Shan tea. Their experiences and love for ancient tea have been passed down for many generations and will continue to be passed on.
Impressive taste
Each cup of tea contains hundreds of years of the quintessence of nature in the Northwest mountains. The flavor is initially slightly astringent and has a long-lasting sweet aftertaste, making them unique and charming. It also reminds us of the cultural and historical imprints of Vietnam from thousands of generations.
