The Yunnan Large-leaf cultivar here grows thick and mineral-dense — the soil sees to that. Sun-drying concentrates what's already a bold, structured leaf: the finished tea is rich and full-mouthed, with a deep sweetness that lingers long after the cup is empty. It's the kind of tea that holds its ground.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLUNAR\u003c\/strong\u003e is from Nannuo Mountain — one of the oldest continuously cultivated tea regions in Yunnan, also Large-leaf, also spring 2026. Shade-drying slows the whole process down, preserving a freshness and green vibrancy that sun-drying would have burned off. This leaves an earthy, vegetal mouth-feel that sharply contrasts to the sweetness and delicacy of \u003cstrong\u003eSOLAR. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eBrewed side by side, the Eclipse Set is as close to a controlled experiment as tea gets — and a genuinely useful way to understand how processing shapes flavor. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(146, 124, 78);\"\u003eSTEEPING PARAMETERS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e(use freshly boiled spring water)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003emodern, large format\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e[300 ml+ vessel — \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\" title=\"HUGO TEA | COLLECTIONS | BOLI 400 ml\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hugotea.com\/collections\/tea-tools\/products\/tea-pot-boli-400-ml\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBOLI\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e, large teapot]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e7 grams (Rinse First) — 185°F (85°C) — 2 minutes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003etraditional, small format\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e[150 ml- vessel — \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"HUGO TEA | COLLECTIONS | gaiwan\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hugotea.com\/collections\/tea-tools\/products\/gaiwan-hugo\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003egaiwan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, small teapot]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e7 grams — 185°F (85°C) — 10 seconds\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e(rinse recommended)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e+ 15-20 seconds each additional steep\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hugo Tea Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52006575997229,"sku":"Shopify Bundle","price":5.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0178\/6381\/files\/EclipseSetTeaCoins_Front_Wrapped.jpg?v=1777043630","url":"https:\/\/www.hugotea.com\/products\/eclipse-set","provider":"Hugo Tea Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
