Mao Jian Legend
As the legend goes, this tea was presented to an imperial official by the abbot of a Buddhist’s monastery wishing to please the inspector.
The inspector gave the tea as a present to his wife who took it to her son whose wife in her turn handed some of this wonderful tea to her sister living at the Emperor’s court.
Soon the tea was tasted by Emperor himself. Since then Gujan Mao Jian was by all means delivered to the Imperial Palace.
