Description

This tea is part of the He Family’s reserve collection, chosen by Mr. He as the best representation of Laoshan’s potential and his family’s values in crafting and picking.

This tea is a testament to the craft of the He Family. Picked in the He Family’s fields while still covered with two layers of greenhouse protection, this 2017 spring green tea is carefully hand pressed by the family one leaf and bud at a time. The flat pressing process takes a full day of intense labor, and brings out more sweetness and a longer aftertaste. The Dragonwell-style finishing is a tribute to the fact that Laoshan tea’s ancestor is the Dragonwell varietal Longing Qunti.
