Master Zhou was born and raised in the mountainous region of Qian Jia Zhai. His ancestors had been engaged in tea cultivation and production here for generations. His first teacher was his own grandfather. Later, he studied under a renowned master from Kunming. In 2004, Zhou created his first tea, which became his favorite and a true “flagship” product. During our collaboration, this tea was named Pineapple Express. In 2018, Master Zhou produced a sheng pu-erh from an ancient single tea tree, which won first place at the All-China Tea Olympiad and brought him recognition and respect among colleagues and collectors.
