2022 China New Design Gunpowder Tea - China Special Tea Zhu Ye Qing – Goodtea

Zhu Ye Qing is a bud-plucked high mountain green tea, with a smooth ”sparrow tongue” shape and tiny side leaves, glossy green in color. It means ”Green Bamboo”, a tribute to the tea’s clear liquor and full of life green tea leaves that seemingly dance in the water when infused. It is one of the earliest teas plucked each spring, with small yield and good quality. The taste is complex and smooth with a thick mouthfeel, there are creamy, vegetal and herbaceous notes of buttered asparagus with a sweetness present throughout, the aftertaste is very clean and there is minimal dryness or astringency.
