Description

Ming Qian Tea refers to the tea leaves picked before Qing Ming Day (April 4). The Ming Qian Tea has rich texture and better freshness with a chill from the early spring, slight cold and elegant, but it absolutely has amazing ability, surging aroma, sweeter, mellower and smoother taste.

This organic tea has flattened leaves and needle-like shape with fresh aroma. As the high mountain tea leaves are very tender, after been through a whole cold winter, they are rich in endoplasmic substances and nutrients. The fresh leaves of Long Ya Green tea need to go through various complicated processes such as Sha Qing, ordering, shaping, and drying, so that to become the high quality drinkable tea. Besides, in order to preserve the shape of the tea, the process of Sha Qing must not be excessively kneaded, and also requires professional skills of tea makers.

TeaVivre’s Organic Ming Qian Long Ya Green Tea is manually picked, made by the single tea buds and one bud with one unopened leaf. After finished the making process, tea makers will select the leaves again to make sure the tea leaves is beautiful and neatly arranged. The tea liquid is bright and clear; tastes sweet, mellow with a fresh chestnut aroma, which will make us feel very comfortable after drinking. In addition, this tea is so ornamental that we can also brew it in a glass tea cup. Seeing tea leaves dance in the hot water, like the spring bamboo shoots after the rain, pleasing and delightful.
