YiWu is an ancient tea mountain in the Yunnan province of China. Historically, it was a center of tea distribution. The area is well-known for its abundance of wild old tea trees, with some over a thousand years old. Puerh Tea made from these tea trees have a unique aroma that is very different from modern ones which are picked from tea bushes planted by tea farmers. The energy, or chi, of the tea also varies based on the difference in aging.
