2️⃣ Deep Roots: These roots dig deep into the earth, tapping into water and nutrients, even in harsh conditions.
3️⃣ Natural Hardiness: Resistant to pests, diseases, and environmental stressors, this tea variety thrives where others might struggle.
4️⃣ Longevity Built-In: With a slower aging process, var. assamica is built to last, creating tea trees that stand tall for centuries. Found in the lush mountains of Yunnan, these trees don’t just survive—they flourish, producing prized teas like Pu-erh that reflect their rich history and environment.
