Our Lan Gui Ren is an exquisite, ceremonial grade loose leaf tea, directly sourced from the growers in the Yunnan Province. Here, first flush oolong tea leaves are hand-picked twice a year in this historic tea producing area. The leaves are lightly oxidized, containing slightly more caffeine than green tea, but less caffeine than black tea. They are then hand rolled with American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) and Licorice Root to make our favorite tea!
