Chinese Tea
YUNNAN QIZI TEA from Yunnan Puer City
It affords a bright red-yellowish liquid with pure aroma and
unique mellow flavor. It has the function of thirsty-quenching,
aiding digestion movement, and accelerating your recovery
from fatigue or intoxication (e.g. from alcohol).
YUNNAN PU ERH TEA
It’s between green tea and black tea, with mild taste,
very good for the stomach. The longer you store this tea the
better it gets. It is a very good tea when you are going on
a diet or to reduce high blood pressure.
TI KUAN YIN / KWAN-YIN TEA
Ti Kuan Yin is considered part of the Oolong tea family as
a semi-fermented tea. Due to sometimes a dark appearance of
the dry leaves and an ancient story, Ti Kuan Yin is named
after the Iron Goddess of Mercy. When it is steeped in boiled
water, it sends out strong fragrance, and its taste is heavy,
born with the strong orchid fragrance. The first taste will
be bitter but it will develop into a sweet one.
BI LUO CHUN From Jiangsu Province
Bi Luo Chun, means 'green and curly leaves of spring'. One
of its outstanding quality is its fruit aroma, endowed with
peach, plum, loquat, and orange that intercropped with it.
Another peculiarity is its early cropping. The harvest starts
from the Spring Equinox, a Chinese solar term around the beginning
of March, when leaf bud is about three quarter inch long.
It would need 68,000 - 74,000 tender leaves to produce one
pound high-grade tea, making it one of most delicate green
tea in China.
DRAGON EYES OF JASMINE from
Fujian Province
An early spring premium grade fragrant jasmine green tea,
Dragons Eye is picked in the misty mountains of Fujian Province.
Only the most tender green buds and selected leaves are hand
rolled into small pearls, giving this tea its exquisite shape,
fresh aroma and clear liquor. This hand rolled tea has undergone
the traditional jasmine scenting process.
This tea can be kept in a pot for a long time and is very
good for older people to drink.
Dragons Eye is one of the best green teas from China.
