Chinese tea master Lu Yu (733-803) of the Tang Dynasty, in his monumental book ‘The Classic of Tea’, described ‘bamboo shoot tea’ as ‘the very best’.
Hoàng Su Phì is blessed with a large area of bamboo shoot tea, stretching from Chiêu Lầu Thi to Tây Côn Lĩnh mountain range. There are white, purple and green varieties of bamboo shoot tea.
The outstanding properties of the bamboo shoot is its exceptionally low caffeine content and natural floral aroma. Each different variety will yield a different fragrance and sweetness, bringing those who enjoy this type a tea a refreshing beverage, with detoxifying and cooling effects.
Producing bamboo shoot tea is one of Hà An tea’s forte.
