Terroir & Climate
At just over 2,000 metres above sea level, the estate sits at an elevation that tends to create a cooler, slower-paced growing environment than lower-altitude gardens in the region. Estates at this latitude and altitude in Yunnan typically experience pronounced diurnal temperature variation, with warm days and cool nights that are often associated with slower leaf maturation and the accumulation of particular flavour precursors. Yongde County lies within a zone that generally receives the influence of both the Indian Ocean monsoon and local topographic rainfall patterns, which together often yield substantial cloud cover and humidity during the growing season.
High-altitude tea cultivation in Yunnan is often characterised by well-drained soils and intense ultraviolet exposure, both of which can influence leaf biochemistry. Estates at comparable elevations in this region tend to harvest across an extended season, with flush timing responsive to local microclimate. The cooler temperatures at this altitude generally slow vegetative growth, a factor often thought to contribute to greater concentration of certain polyphenols and amino acids in the plucked leaf.
Tea Produced
The estate produces green, oolong, and black teas. Yunnan teas from this elevation range are typically known for body and character that reflect the slower leaf development associated with high-altitude cultivation. Green teas from estates at similar elevations in the region often exhibit a balance of sweetness and astringency, while oolongs can tend towards floral or stone-fruit notes depending on oxidation level and cultivar. Black teas from Yongde County and neighbouring areas are generally noted for malty or honeyed qualities, though specific cup profile varies with processing technique and seasonal conditions.

The estate is operated by Hubei Wuhan Jiarun Huiming Tea Co., Ltd., which is named as the controlling entity. No other estates operated by this company are currently recorded in our directory.
