The history of Xinyang Maojian can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty. At that time, there was an man named Li Shen who was studying in a temple. He loved drinking tea and planted some tea trees in the temple. One day, he picked some tender buds and brewed them with boiling water. He found that the tea soup was fragrant and the taste was sweet. He then presented the tea to the emperor of the time. The emperor praised it highly after drinking it, and from then on, this tea became a tribute tea, which later became known as Xinyang Maojian.
