Now we can also offer you the classic, black “scented tea” China Rose as a green tea variety. As a base, a high quality, slightly opened green leaf was used, which is spotted with silver tips. As is the case with the production of the black China Rose, the green tea is also blended with fresh rose petals and then separated from them again after having reached the desired degree of refinement. The result is striking: the flavour of the rose petals develops a bouquet of delicate rose on the green tea; finely balanced and with a scented flavour.
This speciality was exclusively reserved for the Imperial Court in former times. This jasmine tea is of higher quality and price range and is based on a first-class green tea. The freshly added jasmine blossoms are thoroughly removed after the fresh leaves have absorbed the jasmine scent. The precious, only slightly fermented silvery leaf tips are clearly visible. They are also responsible for the light taste and the full harmony with the tender, flowery jasmine aroma.
A low-priced Gunpowder is one of the most popular teas in China. However, this organic variety is largely exported as the world-wide demand significantly exceeds the domestic one. The typical gunpowder form is created by wetting the leaves a few times during the short roasting period, which slows down the drying process and results in a curling of the leaves. This organic version can also be infused more than once which will reduce the slightly tangy character..
This tea is one of the prettiest treasures from the world of tea. It grows in the mountains of southeast China. For more than 100 years, only the finest and youngest leaves of the best green tea qualities have formed the basis for this rarity. The still not quite dry leaves are mixed up to six times with fresh, delicately smelling jasmine blossoms, then sieved and rolled by hand to small pearls. The leaf encloses the fine jasmine aroma and only sets it free during brewing. The fact that “two leaves and a bud” were taken shows in the infusion. The cup colour has an elegant champagne colour.
In China, this tea is very popular and its tradition is very old. This tea has influenced the European tea lover's idea of green tea. Chun Mee means “valuable brow”, for the leaf reminds of the eyebrow form of classical Chinese beauties. The tea has a very typical taste with a tangy aroma accompanied by a slight sweetness. It is grown in south-eastern China near the river Yangtze. If you find this tea too strong, you may pour away the first brew and enjoy the second, milder brew afterwards..
