Emei Zhu Ye Qing Green Tea - 50 g

Emei Zhu Ye Qing Green Tea is obtained by selecting only the apical bud and the first leaf during the beginning of the spring season. 

This fairly early harvest compared to the average, combined with the provenance from high altitude gardens on Mount Emei, gives the product a slightly curved and pointed shape very similar to that of young bamboo leaves. 

The Chinese name Zhu Ye Qing, in fact, can be translated as green bamboo leaf and was given to tea precisely because of the similarity between the two natural elements. 

In appearance, this product is also very close to Yunnan Que She green tea but, although both come from the Sichuan region, they have quite different characteristics, especially in terms of taste. 

Emei Zhu Ye Qing gives the palate a good feeling of freshness thanks to its vegetal flavor of fresh grass and some slightly citrus notes.
