Seed propagated on the misty slopes of Lion's Peak (Shifeng) near Hangzhou, 'Qunti' bushes are heirloom, each a singular representation of texture and character. Compared to its competitor, the ubiquitous clone, 'Longjing #43', Qunti matures later, yields less, and is more labor intensive but rewards with superior depth and traditional character. Because of climate change, many producers in the region are switching to the deeper rooting 'Qunti' for its drought resistance, while collectors prize 'Qunti' Dragonwell for its singular and nuanced fingerprint--unique each time.","brand":"Tier 3","offers":[{"title":"50g Retail Package","offer_id":47177986179295,"sku":"lions-peak-dragonwell _green_tier3_50g","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g","offer_id":47177986212063,"sku":"lions-peak-dragonwell_green_tier3_250g","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0113\/8897\/7216\/files\/LionsPeakDragonwell_3_v2.jpg?v=1753292142"},{"product_id":"yunnan-black-concubine","title":"Fragrant Consort Black","description":"Hailing from Taiwan, 'Ruanzhi' is foundational high mountain oolong stock. Its bouquet is pronounced and elegant and its taste creamy and smooth. In the right hands, oolong material is evoked as expressive and sweet black tea. This particular lot was born from Spirit Tea's Cross Strait Collaboration--a meeting of the Luos--it was grown on the Fengqing farms of preservation and ecologically minded Yunnan Mr. Luo (Sunstone) and processed there by decorated, fastidious Taiwanese master Mr. Luo (Exuding Jade). Realizing the mission similarities of the makers, we broached the idea with the two, sponsored the travel, and commissioned select, exclusive lots.","brand":"Tier 2","offers":[{"title":"50g Retail Package","offer_id":47164434153695,"sku":"fragrant-consort_black_tier2_50g","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g","offer_id":47164434186463,"sku":"fragrant-consort_black_tier2_250g","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0113\/8897\/7216\/files\/YunnanBlackConcubine-5480Large.jpg?v=1753297368"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0113\/8897\/7216\/collections\/Spirit-23Black-041422-1-4x5.jpg?v=1668448936","url":"https:\/\/spirittea.mom\/collections\/floral.oembed","provider":"Spirit Tea ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
