Organic Chinese green tea

About this tea

Heritage Green is our most popular single origin green tea (after Matcha!). Large, vividly colored tea leaves reflect their careful cultivation, as well as the diverse ecosystem they grow from. A plum aroma leads the flavor profile, but the creamy sugar-cane texture steers the imagination toward even richer fruits—dates, or mangoes. The green tea vegetal character tastes invitingly dark and full, like a deep forest. With zero astringency, and a soft, clean mineral note.

We recommend Heritage Green as an introduction to green teas, in part because of its forgiving steeping nature. If your water temperature gets above 170°, or you over-steep the leaves, it resists the typical bitterness. You'll find the same resilience in all our ancient tea tree varieties, which include black, oolong, and puerh teas.

This exquisite tea comes from Jingmai Mountain, a region in southern Yunnan, where the 700 to 1,000 year old ancient tea trees grow. This region has been named a World Heritage site—hence the "Heritage" in Heritage Green. For millennia, the Dai people have handpicked these trees, maintaining this tradition of singular quality. In addition, the ancient tea trees thrive in a diverse forest ecosystem that provides rich antioxidants and nutrients.

I use the Heritage green tea for cold brew. Works great brewing in the Ka-Ku bottle in the fridge. It is my every day drink.

Heritage Green

This is my go-to loose leaf green tea that I can pick up at my local food store. What is said about this tea is true as far as being very forgiving. I've left my infuser in my cup for 20 minutes before and it still tastes fantastic. It is just a great all-around green tea. I enjoy daily unless I run out.

Heritage Green

Drink this tea daily as iced tea, using the Ka-Ku cold brew bottle. As mentioned by others, there is no unsavory aftertaste and the flavor is so refreshing. For me, it is like the Goldilocks green tea - not harsh, not too sweet, just right.

Heritage Green

My absolute favorite tea. So smooth and sweet. I drink it every morning and have a hard time switching to any other tea, as nothing seems to stack up to this excellent tea.

Heritage Green

This is a truly enjoyable tea lacking any astringency and noting a subtle fruitiness. My wife and I enjoy a cup of this often.
