Our Team

Yubai was born in Jingmai, a famous tea mountain in Yunnan, China. During her childhood, her family would harvest their ancient tea gardens and sell the leaves to other tea factories. In 2011, when she was twenty years old, she decided to create a small tea factory on her own to help her family. She would process fresh leaves and find customers for her homemade Jingmai  Pu-erh tea. In 2015, she started to press cakes under her own label Jing Yu Tian Xiang 景域天香.
