This majestic green tea, one of the most famous in China, comes from Yellow Mountain. Legend has it that inconsolable tears of a beautiful young girl who worked on a tea plantation came down in such a steady rain that the body of her lover – whom fate had separated from her – was turned into a tea bush.
