TEAS:

TAI PING HOU KUI green tea. Chinese green tea: From China, in the Taï Ping region, Anhui province. The leaves are worked by hand then placed one by one in a frame covered with fabric on which a roller is operated to flatten them. They will then also be stored one by one in their bag for sale, so as not to break them.

The leaves of this tea are the longest green tea leaves, apart from Pu Erh leaves. Very pretty aromatic bouquet, fruity, floral (Orchid), vegetal and mineral, this legendary green tea is a must when it comes to tasting.
