Wuyi Green (Wu Yi Qing Cha)

Another of the local green varietals one finds in the mountains and hillsides of Fujian Province. Leaves are a rich color, then pan-fired and shaped to a small curved leaf that offers a wild and natural- fruity taste that will linger. Cup color is clear light green. This lot was harvested early in the spring. We find the fresh taste of this tea very enlivening.

4 Tasting Notes

I like this tea as an every day tea. It has some vegetal background with fruity sweetness. I like this tea at work and keeps me warm in the morning. Over all an OK tea.

Love this stuff. It reminds me of what green tea should taste like. Has a very vegetal flavor. The description says a fruity flavor, but I’m not finding those notes. I find it to be somewhere in the middle of a Sencha and a Dragonwell. You get a slightly grassy flavor (sencha) with a hint of nuttiness (dragonwell). If you drink green vegetal teas, you must buy this one.

Definitely a delicious green tea and at a great price! I’m going to order more! It has a good vegetal taste and slight sweetness. I use a Japanese tea pot, 2 steep sessions.
