Default Vietnamese "jasmine" tea (new acquisition)

No idea.
May be some local geographical name.

I may be able to scan and e-mail as a pdf. Would you be okay with that?


Thanks for sending the PDF of a photo of the can. There are four
characters, and unfortunately I was able to figure out only the first
three:

Cha = tea
Xin = pith
Lian = lotus

To visualize the fourth character, think of quadrants. What you see
is:

NW = river (3 strokes)
NE = head (9 strokes)
SW = person (2 strokes)
SE = spoon (2 strokes)

Anyone know what character that forms?
