Orchid Jade Green Tea is a refined experience for the palate, an artisanal tea capable of combining the floral delicacy typical of Taiwanese oolongs with the pure freshness of Chinese green tea. Made according to the traditional methods of Yunnan, this tea surprises with its balance between sweetness, aroma and lightness. Its prized leaves offer a cup with a bright green-yellow color, with an unmistakable orchid fragrance and a gentle sugary note. Origin and processing The cultivar of this tea originally comes from Taiwan, where it is usually used for the production of oolong. However, the master artisans of Yunnan have reinterpreted this noble raw material by transforming it into a green tea, respecting the traditional processes of their region. The careful processing keeps the natural fragrance of the Taiwanese cultivar intact, but with the freshness and clarity that only a well-made green tea can offer. Tasting notes When infused, Orchid Jade Green Tea presents a clear liquor with light green-yellow reflections. The fragrance released by the wet leaves recalls an orchid garden in spring, with a sweet base that evokes candied fruit and fresh vegetables. On the palate, this tea is smooth and velvety: the floral notes blend with a natural sugary scent, while on the finish a slight herbaceous persistence is perceived, never bitter or astringent. Place of origin Puer, Yunnan Infusion method We strongly recommend brewing this tea using the traditional Chinese method (gong fu cha) to best enjoy these leaves. For a classic Western-style preparation we recommend 3 grams of leaves in a 200 ml cup with water at 85°C for an infusion time of 2 minutes. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
