Wild tea refers to the tea that naturally grows in the mountains. It belongs to wild nature with no human intervention. The Ye Sheng Cha 野生茶 has two typical signs. The first one is that it has nearly no hair on buds, the second one is that even the long grow shoot keeps its leaf sheath.
Early spring harvest of Ye Sheng Cha wild tea in Da Xue Shan 大雪山
Da Xue Shan 大雪山 is a 3480m high mountain located in the Lincang region of southwestern Yunnan. Its peak is covered with snow all year round, hence the name Great Snow Mountain (Da Xue Shan 大雪山). Wild tea (Ye Sheng Cha 量茶茶, often called by Yunnan farmers as Shan Cha 山茶, ) grows here in the mountainous terrain at an altitude of 2000-2300 m. Despite growing at such a high altitude, it germinates earlier than most common teas in Yunnan and the rest of China. At the end of March, the tea is ready to be harvested. Daxueshan wild tea is famous for its delicate taste and fragrance of wild orchid. The local farmers are from the Li Su minority group, which is a very rare race in Yunnan that typically lives in high mountains in China. The nature of these people is that they would rather make less tea and live a simple life as they always have.
