Mao Jian is produced among the misty mountains of Zhejiang, Anhui and Henan provinces and literally translates as 'hairy tip'bor 'fur tip'. This is from Zhejiang and has a bright, fresh, clean and rounded character that is refreshing and suits any mood at any time of the day. The long, neat twists of dark, seaweed-green leaf give a vivid, pale lime-green liquor with a complex, slightly sappy aroma and a brisk clean taste that combines dry grass back notes and sweeter floral tones in the foreground.
