Zhenyuan, a high altitude area of Simao, produces this high quality delicate green tea.  Picked twice a year in a 2 day period when the buds and leaves are young and small.  The taste is light and fruity with slight nuttiness.  An exquisite tea, fresh for spring season.

Grown by a small family-run operation!

Reviews

"This tea has been my discovery of the year. I was looking for an inexpensive tea to take to work in a thermos. Since a thermos tends to take away some of the tea’s flavor and aroma, I simply wanted something that would give me an energy boost, without paying extra for any particularly refined flavor or aroma that would probably be lost anyway. But this tea surprised me. Not only does it have a wonderful aroma and an excellent taste, but both the flavor and aroma remain surprisingly well preserved even in a thermos. It’s an amazing tea. At first, I bought just a small amount to try it, but then I bought a lot more so I could enjoy it at home as well as take it to work."

One of the Finest Green Teas I’ve Tasted

"This is a fantastic tea, one of the best green teas I’ve ever had! Using 70 °C water and a 45-second infusion, it easily lasts through 7–8 steeps. The flavor stays consistent up to the sixth infusion, and with slightly longer steeping and 80 °C water, a bit of bitterness appears around the eighth and ninth, but it’s still very enjoyable. Both the dry leaves and the brewed tea have a strong, very appealing floral-fruity aroma. The taste of the tea is also characterized by this floral-fruity note, with a slight sweetness and a subtle, hard-to-pin-down nutty background that is not intense. This green tea is completely free of any bitterness or grassy flavor. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys this flavor profile!"
