Biluochun is a renowned green tea in Chinese history, and the top grade of Biluochun requires not only high picking standards and early harvest times but also the craftsmanship of a master. The tea we've chosen is supervised by Shi Liwen, a non-heritage cultural inheritor of Biluochun. Shi Yuewen, born into a family known as the "Tea King," has ancestors who were called "Old Biluo" for their tribute of Biluochun to the imperial court, and his grandmother, Zhou Ruijuan, personally pan-fried tea for Zhu De. Building on the traditional skills of making Biluochun tea, Shi Yuewen has created new methods for making Biluochun black tea and osmanthus-flavored black tea. In 2017, he was selected as a representative inheritor of the fifth batch of national-level intangible cultural heritage projects. The tea he personally makes is not available for purchase; it requires advance booking and is extremely expensive.

In China, top-grade Longjing tea comes exclusively from the core West Lake production area, with the most authentic variety, ideally picked early in spring as bud tips or one bud and one leaf to be considered the crème de la crème of Longjing.
This product is among the finest Longjing teas. We've sourced it from the inheritor of the Longjing intangible cultural heritage, Master Weng Liwen, a tea master from the century-old Wengjiashan tea estate, and a national first-class tea appraiser. This pre-rain Longjing is hand-picked and pan-fried by Master Weng, featuring the Longjing No. 43 variety. It's a handcrafted Longjing tea, harvested early on March 26, 2024. For those who wish to experience the authentic, top-tier West Lake Longjing crafted by a master, this tea is a must-try.

Weng Liwen
Weng Liwen is the inheritor of the century-old Weng Longshun Jingji Tea Estate in Wengjiasahn, the core production area of Shifeng Longjing, and he is also a national first-class tea appraiser.
He is closely associated with the craftsmanship of making West Lake Longjing tea and is one of the inheritors of this traditional craft. Weng Liwen has profound experience in tea making; he not only personally participates in the picking and frying of tea leaves but also is committed to teaching and promoting this craft to ensure the traditional flavor of West Lake Longjing tea continues.
Weng Liwen pays special attention to the manual frying of tea leaves in the tea-making process. He believes that the taste and quality of hand-fried tea are far superior to machine-made tea. He emphasizes that each step requires the tea maker to use their five senses, and the tea maker's gaze, judgment, and the warmth of their hands during the manual tea-making process are irreplaceable. Weng Liwen also mentioned that although machine frying is a trend in Longjing tea production, hand-made tea still has its unique value and significance.
Weng Liwen says, "Every tea maker has their own techniques and criteria for judgment. Personally, I believe that 'without floral fragrance, it's not Longjing.' Although floral fragrance, especially the orchid scent we pursue, is something that can be encountered but not sought.

Introduction:
This Jasmine Bai Hao is meticulously selected from the spring harvest of 2023. Plucked from high-altitude tea gardens in northern Fujian, at elevations of approximately 1000 meters, the exceptional growing conditions impart a fresh and richly layered flavor to this jasmine tea. The plucking standard of exclusively whole buds, combined with nine scenting processes, ensures a vibrant, luxurious floral aroma, a refreshing and mellow taste, and a sweet, lingering aftertaste with a hint of rock sugar sweetness.

Reasons to Recommend:

• Core Production Area: Grown in northern Fujian, where the climate is warm, humid, and evergreen year-round. With abundant sunshine, ample rainfall, and a frost-free period of 326 days, the region provides an ideal environment for tea cultivation.
• Scenting Process: Fuding Big Pekoe serves as the tea base, while jasmine flowers from Fuzhou, Fujian, are used for scenting. The traditional scenting process is repeated nine times, resulting in a tea that is described as uplifting, soothing, and warming, evoking the image of a jasmine flower slowly blooming.
• Whole Bud Material: The plump, straight bud tips are covered in abundant, visible white hairs, indicating their tenderness. These buds absorb the jasmine fragrance more effectively during scenting, resulting in a more intense, fresh aroma and a smoother taste. The tea retains its flavor and aroma even after multiple infusions.

Oxidation Level: None
Roasting Level: None
Processing Time: September 2024
Best Before Date: 24 months
Tea Variety: Fuding Big Pekoe

Why We Made This Tea:

We hope that through this series, we can help tea friends who wish to delve into Biluochun to provide a comprehensive tasting experience. It's not just a taste enjoyment, but also an in-depth exploration of Chinese tea culture.

Reasons to Recommend This Tea:

This series is designated by the China Tea Science Society as a teaching sample.
It is the most authentic Biluochun, coming from the core area of Biluochun in West Mountain, Taihu Lake, Suzhou City, Jiangsu, which is the core origin of the authentic Dongting Biluochun, surrounded by Taihu Lake on all sides.
Excellent natural environment: Taihu Lake surrounds West Mountain, where both tea and fruit are grown. The island is planted with loquat trees, plum blossom trees, and plum trees, giving the tea a unique natural flavor all year round. Geese are raised on the island, forming natural fertilizer.

Introducing our exquisite Biluochun, one of China's most renowned green teas.

This premium tea undergoes a unique process of high-temperature killing and is first pan-fried until dry, then slowly oven-dried at low temperatures. Unlike Longjing's pan-frying, which gives a distinct bean flavor, Biluochun's aroma is more subtle and refreshing. The slow, low-temperature frying process ensures there's no seaweed taste in Biluochun. This particular grade of Biluochun is quite high, featuring one bud and one leaf, made following the authentic Biluochun craftsmanship. It has a slight floral and fruity fragrance, slightly sweet without bitterness, and abundant in downy hairs. Although it's not from the authentic Dongting Biluochun in Suzhou, Zhejiang, but made from tea plants in Ya'an, Sichuan (close to the Tibetan Plateau, with an average altitude of over 2000 meters), this tea offers excellent quality and flavor at a more affordable price.

Reasons to choose this tea:

Crafted from the fresh spring harvest of April 2024, with one bud and one leaf, indicating high tenderness and grade of the tea leaves.
It's a high cost-performance Biluochun green tea without compromising quality.
Sourced from high-altitude tea gardens in Lingshan District, Ya'an City, Sichuan, at an altitude of 2000 meters, processed with the craftsmanship of Jiangsu Biluochun tea. The price is favorable because it's not from the core production area of Biluochun.

Purchase recommendation:

This tea is especially suitable for those who want to try Biluochun as beginners or for daily tea drinkers who need a large supply.
If you must purchase authentic Dongting Biluochun from Suzhou, Zhejiang, please buy with caution.

The spring-harvested leaves ensure a rich fragrance and refreshing flavor, resulting in a pure, lingering aftertaste.

Taiping Houkui is a famous green tea from the Taiping area of Huangshan, Anhui Province, China. It comes from the core production region—Qiaoshan Village in Xinming Township—known for its cool, humid climate and fertile soil, perfect for growing tea. Our premium Taiping Houkui is made from one bud and three leaves, usually harvested around the Grain Rain season, with fine white fuzz on the leaves indicating top quality. The tea is grown from the traditional seed-propagated ‘Shi Da Shu’ variety, which matures later than usual. Due to the high altitude in Huangshan, the first harvest also takes place around Grain Rain. We work with Master Yu Jianguo, a tea farmer with over 20 years of experience, to produce this tea, which has a fresh flavor and aroma.

Biluochun: As one of the most iconic green teas in China, Biluochun is renowned for its unique floral and fruity aroma. Our premium Biluochun is sourced from Liyang, Jiangsu Province, crafted using traditional methods, and picked at the pre-rain period, ensuring a fresh, delicate flavor with minimal bitterness. This high-quality tea offers excellent value, priced at half to a third of similar products from core regions.

Xinyang Maojian: A top Chinese green tea, Xinyang Maojian comes from the core production area in Shihe District, Xinyang, located in high-altitude mountains at 900 meters. The significant temperature difference between day and night creates a unique elegant aroma and a fresh, flavorful taste. Our 2024 spring harvest features the highest quality leaves, with fine white hairs indicating superior quality.

Enshi Yulu: This historic steamed green tea is the only one in China that retains this traditional crafting method. Our Enshi Yulu comes from the core area in Enshi, Hubei, handpicked and crafted by a tea farmer with over 20 years of experience. Using high-grade leaves, this tea is fresh, rich, and slightly reminiscent of seaweed, while also being rich in natural selenium, known for its immune-boosting and antioxidant properties.

Someone asked, "I'm new to Chinese green tea and want to try some well-known varieties without compromising on quality." This collection is curated just for that. We've handpicked the top 4 out of China's 10 famous green teas: Longjing, Biluochun, Huangshan Maofeng, and Lu'an Guapian. We've sourced these directly from authentic growers in the classic production areas, offering great value for money. Additionally, we've chosen high-altitude teas from seed-propagated group plantations and crafted by tea masters with over 20 years of experience. Each tea is a spring harvest from 2024. Here's a brief introduction to each:

Lu'an Guapian:  A Unique Green Tea 15g
Lu'an Guapian is a historic Chinese tea that was once a tribute to the royal family. This precious green tea still maintains its unique traditional craftsmanship and flavor. Our gourmet Lu'an Guapian is handcrafted by a master with 30 years of experience, using leaves from the small-leaf tea plants in Qi Mountain, Lu'an, Anhui, grown at an altitude of 600 meters. Picked at the end of spring, the leaves are tender with a rich aroma and a refreshing taste. The end-of-spring tea is more affordable than early spring tea, with a more pronounced tea flavor and a slightly reduced aroma. Lu'an Guapian is picked by selecting only the second leaf from the bud and two leaves, discarding the stem and tender leaves, retaining the essence of the tea to ensure the purity and delicate freshness of the tea soup.

Biluochun: A Premium Green Tea from China 15g
Biluochun is one of China's most famous green teas, known for its high-temperature killing and initial pan-frying followed by slow low-temperature drying. Unlike Longjing's pan-frying, dried green tea has a distinct bean flavor, but Biluochun's frying aroma is not prominent, offering a more refreshing taste. This high-grade Biluochun has a slight floral and fruity fragrance, slightly sweet without bitterness, and abundant downy hairs. Despite its high grade and flavor, it's affordably priced because it's made from tea plants in Sichuan, not the authentic Dongting Biluochun from Suzhou, Zhejiang.

Huangshan Maofeng: A Delightful Green Tea 12g
Huangshan Maofeng represents the high-mountain green teas of China, grown from 60-year-old tea trees in loamy soil at an altitude of 800 meters. Crafted by experienced tea masters using traditional drying techniques, this tea offers a perfect balance of quality and value. It's rich in minerals and exudes a refreshing green tea aroma with a subtle orchid fragrance. Its sweet and gentle flavor is endlessly memorable, making it ideal for daily drinking, especially for those who prefer a sweet taste without bitterness. The spring-picked high-mountain leaves add to its unique sweet taste and soft texture.

Longjing: A Famous Green Tea 15g
We're committed to providing an authentic Longjing tea, different from the popular low-grade "machine-cut Longjing." Our tea is selected from the traditional Longjing variety in Lishui, Zhejiang, crafted semi-manually by Longjing masters with over 30 years of experience, combining traditional techniques with modern conveniences. We choose to pick our tea after Grain Rain and before the beginning of summer, when the flavor is similar to pre-Grain Rain tea, but more affordable. Our tea comes from high-altitude gardens (900-1000 meters), where the climate and altitude provide an environment similar to West Lake, ensuring superior quality and value.

Our Longjing tea is of a high grade, carefully selected from one bud and two leaves to one bud and three leaves, offering complete leaves in contrast to the machine-cut tea with more stems and incomplete leaves. Our goal is to offer a genuine variety and craftsmanship of high-quality Longjing tea at an entry-level price, ensuring every cup exudes the pure aroma and elegant taste of traditional Longjing

Huangshan Maofeng Green Tea – High Mountain Chinese Green Tea with Orchid Aroma

Huangshan Maofeng is one of the most renowned green teas in China, grown in the designated regions around Huangshan (Yellow Mountain) in Anhui Province.

Ideal for daily drinkers, gift-givers, or those looking for a balanced jasmine tea that doesn’t sacrifice quality for price.

Introduction
Jasmine tea is made by blending finished base teas with fresh jasmine blossoms, allowing the dry tea leaves to absorb the floral aroma. The resulting tea is known as jasmine tea.

Our Jasmine Green Tea Sampler features four types of Chinese green teas as the base, each scented with jasmine flowers through different numbers of scenting sessions—3, 5, 7, and 9 times. These teas represent a variety of classic green tea shapes in China:

• Curled (Biluochun)
• Tightly rolled with visible silvery buds (Mao jian)
• Needle-shaped (Zhen wang)
• Covered in fine white hairs (Bai hao)

Each variety offers a unique green tea taste. With increasing scenting sessions, the jasmine aroma becomes progressively more intense, allowing you to experience the true artistry of traditional Chinese flower-scented tea.

Who It's For
From the moment you open the package, the elegant scent of jasmine welcomes you—calming and refreshing, as if you're stepping into a serene garden. The flavor profile ranges from light and delicate to rich and full-bodied, offering delightful variation.

You’ll experience Longjing (Dragon Well) green tea made from three renowned tea tree varietals: Wu Niu Zao, Longjing #43, and the heritage Longjing Qunti. Though harvested and processed in the same way, each tea reflects its unique tree’s characteristics. This collection allows tea lovers to discover their preferred varietal of this classic green tea.

Quality and Expertise: Made by experienced tea masters, this collection brings the highest quality Longjing green tea directly to your cup.

Value for Tea Enthusiasts: This curated set offers a chance to taste and compare teas that are not always easy to find in Western markets.

We noticed that many popular Longjing teas are "knife-cut" varieties. These Green Tea are made from leaves cut after high-grade teas have been hand-harvested. As a result, they contain more stems, and the leaves are often incomplete, producing a weaker flavor and possibly coming from non-authentic Longjing varieties. We wanted to offer a Longjing tea that delivers the authentic taste, variety, and craftsmanship at an entry-level price, allowing more people to experience the true flavors of this iconic tea.

Why choose our Longjing?

Craftsmanship: Handcrafted by a Longjing master with over 30 years of experience, our tea combines traditional techniques and modern refinement.

Seasonal Selection: We’ve chosen 谷雨茶 (Grain Rain) tea, which is harvested just after Qingming tea. The taste difference is minimal, but the price is significantly more affordable.

High-Altitude Quality: Our tea comes from Zhejiang Lishui’s Longjing heirloom variety. The climate and high altitude (900-1000 meters) offer conditions similar to West Lake, but with superior pricing and quality.

Leaf Grade: Selected for its high grade—one bud, two leaves—this tea is from the freshest spring harvest of 2024, ideal for those who enjoy a clean, refreshing taste with signature chestnut and bean notes.

Precision Hand-Picking: Each batch is handpicked to ensure no stems and minimal tea dust, ensuring a purer brew with authentic flavor.

This tea is perfect for:

Tea lovers seeking an authentic Longjing experience with superior craftsmanship, and flavor,
People needing a mild caffeine boost, as Longjing’s caffeine content is moderate, helping with focus and alertness,
Tea culture enthusiasts, as Longjing is one of China’s top 10 famous teas with a rich history and tradition.
If you're looking for an entry-level authentic variety, craftsmanship, and flavor in Zhejiang Longjing, this is the most cost-effective option we could find!
