In years past these leaves would be reserved for only a select few. To drink this tea is to enter a pure level of enjoyment of a fine green classic. This tea is full of flavor with a memorable aftertaste. The dry leaves have a pungent nutty aroma as does the final brew. Select growing conditions add to the full body of this Zhejiang beauty. The leaf of this tea is small and there area many fine tips and budlets which unfold easily in the water. Steep for one minute with care as these young leaves are very sensitive. Use about three grams of dry tea for full flavor. 2013 West lake.
