Anhui

Anhui province in eastern China is home to several of China's Ten Famous Teas. The misty peaks of Huangshan (Yellow Mountain) produce Huangshan Mao Feng, a delicate green tea with orchid-like aroma. Lu An Gua Pian (Melon Seed Tea) is unique among Chinese green teas in being made from single mature leaves with no buds - a labor-intensive process producing a distinctively shaped, slightly toasted tea. Taiping Houkui (Monkey King) features dramatically large flat-pressed leaves grown in the Taiping area. Anhui is also the home of Keemun, one of China's most refined black teas, prized for its wine-like, orchid-cocoa complexity and traditionally favored by British connoisseurs as the base for English Breakfast blends.
