Bi Lo Chun Green Tea - Competition Grade
More about this item ....
Considered to be one of China's ten famous teas, our Bi Lo Chun (Green Snail Spring) produces a fragrant, nutty brew which is lightly astringent but mellow. There is a refreshing sweetness to it, with a slightly buttery finish. This tea is from Fujian Province. It is very sensitive to brewing times and temperature, so we recommend infusing it with relatively cool water (~160F) for only 2 minutes.
Bi Lo Chun literally means "Green Snail Spring." The "snail" is because the leaves are rolled into spirals resembling snails, and "spring" is because it is picked in the early spring, when the buds and young leaves are still small and delicate. There can be 7,000 buds in just one pound of Bi Lo Chun.
