Description
The Yunnan province, renowned as the "land of eternal spring," experiences such a gentle climate that the initial tea harvests arrive towards the conclusion of winter. This tea is collected right before the Chinese New Year and symbolizes the revival of nature and the delightful aromas of spring.
This exceptional Chinese green tea, belonging to the latest harvest season, resembles a rejuvenating spring awakening. It possesses crisp vegetal and mineral flavors, along with a delicately smooth texture reminiscent of fine powder.
