According to folklore, some high-quality tea leaves are grown on cliffs, which are difficult for humans to pick, so monkeys are trained to pick them. Therefore, some no-name but high-quality teas are all named as "Monkey-Picked", symbolizing the rarity and high quality. In fact, there is not a single tea breed called Monkey-Picked. In modern times, Monkey-Picked is mostly used to describe some high quality oolong teas and unnamed teas, such as Supreme Tieguanyin.

Monkey-Picked is produced in Anxi, Fujian Province. It undergoes traditional fermentation and roasting in high heat. The color of the tea leaves becomes black and slick, the infusion color is dark, and the caramelization makes the tea have aromas such as caramel and fried rice, and the taste is mellow and sweet.

Frequently Asked Questions
Title
How do I choose the right tea capsule size?
Large tea capsules contain more tea leaves than small ones, resulting in a stronger brew. If you prefer bold flavors, opt for the large capsules. Additionally, you can choose based on the machine model you use.​
Do you offer a recycling service?
Yes. Please store used tea capsules in a TEA CHÂTEAU recycling bag or sealed plastic bag and bring them to any TEA CHÂTEAU boutique for recycling. Please note that pop-up stores do not offer this service.
Are the tea capsules only compatible with TEA CHÂTEAU brewers?
No. Our tea capsules are also compatible with Nespresso Original series and Nescafe Dolce Gusto coffee machines. However, using a TEA CHÂTEAU brewer ensures the best flavor. Compared to standard capsule machines, our brewers feature pre-infusion technology, delivering richer aromas and more complex tea profiles.
