This unique production method, originally from Fujian, has been successfully applied in Yunnan since 2010.
Its name harks back to the time in Wuyi, where trained monkeys were said to pick tea leaves from wild bushes
growing in the steep mountains. The result is a tea with a sweet, mild, and aromatic character, complemented
by its distinct mahogany-red cup.
