Fangxia Flat Plate oolong gathered just as people were

gathered just as people were beginning to explore and collect tea from the deeper forests

They are hundreds of years old

The storage in the early years was a little humid

fully handmade of course and made from a batch of stone ground aged zini

It's full of elements with a nice minerality and steady long lasting aftertaste

Fangxia Flat Plate oolong gathered just as people wereWe had an antique plate in our collection that made a perfect tray for putting teacups on when brewing tea. These old flat plates are not so easy to come across in the market, but make perfect trays for teacups. We thought it might be nice to recreate this for tealovers. We made a form in the original shape and these are hand pressed into the mould to create the shape. They are then finished by hand, glazed with the same rice straw glaze that we use
