Core growing sites that will not come again,
batches you will not meet twice.
Year by year. Lot by lot.
The same tree,
next year's taste
will not be this year's.
The Mulan Archive is built on “vintage + batch + number + provenance + collection + time”: every batch of tea carries a lot number and a picking date; every Unique piece and every single-plant lot comes with its own archive.
Above the collection, access is by appointment. Whenever you come for it, that is the taste you will find.
The System · 典藏體系
- VINTAGES
Presented by vintage — one year, one taste; complete sets to collect.
- PROVENANCE
Core growing site, tree age, craft and picking dates — each recorded in turn.
- LOT
Every batch carries a lot number — traceable, and retellable.
- TEA VAULT
The tea of Mulan Maison — one tong a year, sealed at Mulan Maison.
- CELLARING
Professional cellaring guidance, to age your tea into the shape of time.
Time, too,
is part of the material.
Time is part of the recipe.
