The region is marked by winding rivers and clean mountain springs that irrigate the farm’s tea trees naturally. At 1300 meters, the high elevation and mineral-rich soils support a low-intervention approach to farming. The trees grow clean and strong, producing nutrient-dense leaf that carries the clarity of place.
The producer team here works with precision and curiosity. Known cultivars are handled in unconventional ways—not to break tradition, but to refine it. The conditions at Anshun Royal make that possible. When the soil, elevation, and water are working in your favor, you can step back and let the craft speak.
