The name of the tea explains its origin and quality. The words "Ciao Mu" (乔木) indicate that the leaves used to make this Pu-erh tea were harvested from tall, straight tea trees. These trees are known for their cold resistance and high content of beneficial substances in the leaves, making them ideal for producing red tea and Pu-erh. The second part of the name, "GunTin" (宫廷), refers to the leaf size, which is small but whole, not cut. GunTin tea features delicate leaves interspersed with numerous tea buds, providing a strong taste and powerful impact.
