Long Jing Da Fo #43
According to the traditional Chinese view, the real Long Jing should have four characteristics (or four treasures) - a bright green color, a dense aroma, a saturated taste and a beautiful shape.
To better enjoy not only the taste but also the look of this famous tea, we recommend using a glass teapot or tall glass to prepare it. The tea is filled with water around 85 ° C. Tea should be handled with care, it is better to make it softer to maintain its delicate rich aroma.
Moli Tai Mu Long Zhu
Moli Tai Mu Long Zhu (Jasmine Dragon Pearls). Tightly completely hand-rolled regular balls of green tea tips, flavored with jasmine flower added in the drying process. The quality jasmine aroma lasts long after the tea is finished. Glass dishes will offer a beautiful view of the developing balls. They give a greenish fresh and strongly aromatic drink with a strong taste of jasmine combined with delicate green tea.
The infusion has a light color. Compared to jasmine teas sold in regular stores, it does not have such a strong aroma. Jasmine rather underlines the tea notes, but does not overpower them. The tea tastes sweet, but the main flavor is more floral. It can be prepared for several infusions if we gradually increase the temperature.

Maocha 2023
Green (sheng) pu-erh or even better maocha from the southern areas of Yunnan. Large leaves (Da Ye) smell thin and very fresh. Tea has traditionally been dried in the sun, without accelerated modern drying in the oven, and therefore does not contain the slightest hint of unpleasant smoked.
The taste is very delicate, sweet and, unlike classic green pu-erhas, it doesn't even have many fruity tones. You will find in it rather light sweetness and freshness, floral tones and long-lasting sweet gentle aftertaste.
