tea farmer


How long have you been growing tea and what got your started?
I began to work in tea when I was 20, my parents are tea farmers, so I work as well...

Can you describe a typical day out in the field?
I work from 8am to 4pm. My main job is plucking.

What is your favorite part of growing tea?
I love to see the final tea with flower in my cup after lots of hard work. It is so beautiful and tasteful.

Conversely, what is the hardest part of your job?
The tea trees are planted in the mountains. I need to climb mountains everyday. It is not easy to pick up tea leaves.

Are there any tips you can give on how to best brew your tea? Any advice?
Suggest to use a glass cup or glass teapot with pure water, you can see the beautiful tea with flowers in your cup with pleasant smell. I think this is the best tea I have ever drunk.
