This Organic green tea has a superb taste, with sweet light notes, that are subtlety honey-like.
The twin peaks of Mt. Tianmu are known for their scenery and the misty covered slopes. The tea is grown there in the valleys, where it is misty most of the time. This gives the tea its unique taste and appearance.
The two peaks of Mt. Tianmu are famous for its scenery and misty covered slopes. The tea bushes grow in the valleys, where it is misty 3/4’s of the time (tea cannot grow on the summit because it is too windy). This gives the tea its unmistakable taste and visual appearance.
This tea is manufactured under shou-mei principles, those being: sun-dried and subjected to a minimum amount of processing so the tea’s color and aroma are as close as possible to those of fresh leaves. You can see evidence of this in the leaf appearance - the leaves are virtually whole with many bud sets and slight ‘hairy’ down, indicative of very careful hand rolling and superior hand sorting.
Hot tea brewing method: When preparing by the cup, this tea can be used repeatedly - about 3 times. The secret is to use water that is about 80’C. Place 1 teaspoon in your cup and let the tea steep for about 3-5 minutes and then begin enjoying a cup of enchantment - do not remove the leaves from the cup. Once the water level is low - add more water, and so on and so on - until the flavor of the tea is exhausted. Look at the pattern of the leaves in the brew - they foretell life.
Iced tea-brewing method: Not recommended.
