Why Ha Giang Breeds Exceptional Shan Tea
Ha Giang, a province nestled in the majestic northern mountains of Vietnam, isn’t just a breathtaking landscape; it’s the cradle of legendary Shan tea. But what makes this region so uniquely suited for cultivating this exceptional tea?
Ideal Climate

These programs promote workplace conditions in accordance with human rights, ILO conventions and national labor law and encourage organisations to develop and apply socially acceptable practices in the workplace.
Untouched Terrain
Much of Ha Giang remains untouched by modern development, with pristine mountain slopes harboring ancient Shan tea trees thriving in their natural environment. This translates to pure, unadulterated tea with a distinct character.
Diverse Microclimates
From the rolling hills of Cao Bồ to the limestone peaks of Fin Hồ, Ha Giang offers a variety of microclimates. These subtle variations in temperature, altitude, and rainfall contribute to the unique nuances found in Shan tea grown in different regions.
Ha Giang Province
Generations of meticulous hand-picking ensure only the finest leaves are selected. Better for who appreciate a smooth and delicately sweet Shan tea, a testament to traditional practices.
Due to its meticulous hand-picking and focus on quality, Cao Bò excels in producing Shan tea with a well-balanced and smooth flavor profile.
The lower altitude of Quan Ba influences the Shan tea to develop warmer aromas with notes of roasted chestnuts and a touch of earthiness. This creates a more comforting and robust Shan tea experience.
