2026 Early Spring "Bi Luo Chun - Dong Ting Shan" (BiLuoChun - Dongting Mountain) A+++ Grade Green Tea, JiangSu Province

Overview Harvested in March 2026 from the core region of Dongting Mountain, this early spring first-flush tea represents the pinnacle of "Green Spiral" craftsmanship. The leaves benefited from a cool, dry spring environment in the lake-microclimate, resulting in an exceptional density of white down and aromatic oils. Sensory Profile Appearance: Tiny, silver-green spirals, tightly curled like "honeybee legs" and covered in a thick, velvety down. Aroma: A sophisticated "Fruit-Flower" bouquet, a natural byproduct of interplanting tea trees among fruit orchards in the core terroir. Palate: Mellow, crisp, and remarkably tender with a deep umami sweetness. Finish: A lingering, clean orchid resonance with immediate salivation (shengjin). Storage & Brewing Storage: Airtight, opaque container; Refrigerate (0–5°C). Temperature: 75–80°C (167–176°F). Avoid boiling water. Technique (Top-Drop): Fill a glass with water first, then sprinkle leaves on top. Watch the "Green Snow" descent as the buds sink slowly.
