In 1915, the world's fair came to San Francisco - the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, celebrating the opening of the Panama Canal.

China sent tea. This one took home gold.

Tai Ping Hou Kui (太平猴魁), "Monkey King Tea," was developed around 1900 in Hou Keng village in the mountains around Huangshan, Anhui Province. Most green teas are rolled into pellets or twists. This one isn't - each leaf is hand-pressed flat, sometimes longer than your finger. Look closely and you'll see a faint red vein running through the center. Farmers call it "the red string."

In 1955 it was officially named one of China's 10 famous teas.

Brewed gongfu-style here. Gentle, floral, sweet finish - nothing like the grassy supermarket green tea most people know.

I call it "spring in a cup." These little green pearls unfurl into whole leaves, releasing an insane orchid aroma - and no, there are zero flowers added. It’s just pure tea magic. 🌸

It’s buttery, smooth, and leaves a sweet honey-like aftertaste that lingers for ages. If you’re looking for a sign to upgrade your tea ritual, this is it.

Perfect for those rainy Belgian afternoons when you need a little Zen.
