Description

Another fabulous tea from northern Zhejiang Province. This is a green tea loaded with asparagus and citrus flavors. “Baicha” refers to the special culivar (tea plant) used to make this tea. The first few leaves are lighter (or whiter) than normal. There is less green chlorophyll in the immature leaves.
