Origin

Terroir profiles, processing methods, and regional character — the geography behind the flavor. Each origin article maps a specific tea region with the same precision a wine atlas brings to its appellations.

Coverage spans the principal tea-growing regions of Asia — Yunnan, Fujian, Guangdong, Wuyi, Taiwan, the Thai highlands, and production zones across Southeast Asia. Articles explain elevation, soil composition, cultivar selection, and how each factor shapes what ends up in the cup.

Processing documentation goes deep: kill-green methods, oxidation control, rolling, compression, fermentation, and roasting — explained precisely enough that the chemistry makes sense, not just the category names.
