I brewed a heaping teaspoon of leaf in a mug infuser. The brew is light overall but has more depth than most light greens as it has a somewhat light smooth sweetness to that I am not sure how to describe beyond mellow.
2012 Yunnan Biluochun Green Tea
2012 Yunnan Biluochun Green Tea
This is a 2012 first flush Biluochun tea from Yunnan. This beautifully made Yunnan large leaf variety brews a flavor that is exquisite, smooth and fruity. It may be prepared in a regular teapot, a traditional steeping cup (known as a gaiwan), or in individual teacups. It’s light in comparison with other green teas.Do not use the boiling water to scald the tea leaves! Allow 1 to 2 tsp. of tea leaves per cup (8oz) of water. Cover with water no hotter than 80C, (158F) and allow to steep for 2 to 3 min.
