Hachi Project Lot 40: YÌNGXUĚ (映雪) – KYŌ

Yìngxuě, meaning “Moonlight Reflected on Snow,” expresses clarity at its most refined — a quiet brilliance shaped by translucency, elegance, and precision. Rather than intensity, the cup reveals itself through purity of structure and a long, luminous finish.

Produced by Hachi Project at The Nest Estate in Yunnan (1450–1600m), this lot features the Syrina variety processed through the Enzyflow Honey Process — an enzyme-assisted immersion fermentation designed to stabilise mucilage breakdown while guiding aromatic development with exceptional control.

Unlike traditional honey processing, where fermentation evolves gradually during drying, Enzyflow initiates controlled enzymatic activity during the soaking stage. This accelerates mucilage softening and improves access to sugar and aroma precursors, allowing sweetness and floral clarity to develop while maintaining remarkable cleanliness and transparency in the cup.

Precise, luminous, and composed — a crystalline interpretation of structured honey processing from Yunnan.
