Tai Ping Hou Kui (太平猴魁) is a renowned tea from Huangshan District in Anhui Province with a flavor as elegant and evocative as the unique pick of the leaves. The delicate scent of orchids greets you from the infused leaves while the liquor is full-bodied and silky smooth with a gentle sweetness and notes of nutmeg. The flavor lasts through multiple infusions and the dry finish lingers pleasantly throughout the day.
