Description

Ancient Snow Sprout is one of Rishi’s premier teas from the old growth tea forests of Yunnan. The unique aroma and flavor of this superior grade of sun-dried green tea (Saiqing) can only be captured during one brief harvest during the snowing period of spring and consists of only large, silvery-white bud tips from Yunnan’s broad leaf tea trees. Snow Sprout has a rich honey-like flavor and fresh floral finish unlike any other green tea we offer.
