Thai Nguyen Moc Cau Tea – Spring Harvest 2025
Thai Nguyen Moc Cau Tea is a classic green tea from the renowned Tan Cuong region in Thai Nguyen Province, Vietnam. It is widely loved for its approachable flavor, affordable price, and consistent quality. The tea is made from young leaves and buds, hand-picked and processed into small, curved shapes resembling fishhooks — hence the name “Móc Câu.”
Moreover, this tea offers a fresh aroma, a bright green infusion, and a mild astringency that softens into a naturally sweet aftertaste. It’s a great option for daily drinking and for those new to Vietnamese green tea.
