This Pomelo Flower comes from Zhuliu village on the slopes of Wudong mountain in the Phoenix mountains range. The garden bushes are between 50 and 80 years old, unpruned, and reach over two metres in height. We sourced it through a trusted friend based in China, with direct ties to some of the best producers in the region.

Roasting: nongxiang (full fragrance), three classic roastings.
