Liuan Gua Pian is one of the traditional types green tea originally coming from Jinzai County in Anhui Province. This green tea is completely without the buds (tips) and stems, only top grade of small leafs rolled into the shape reminding the seed so it’s also called “Melon seed”or “Sunflower seed” . After few sips the tea leaves pleasant bittersweet sensation in the mouth.

This is my first experience with this type of green tea. I was surprised at how much it reminded me of the few Dragonwell greens I have had. Prominent notes of chestnut and some savory green herb notes of dried parsley. Also noticeable were hints of cinnamon, cherry, and other sweet notes that really reminded me of pastries. In fact, I would be much more likely to pick up this again than a Dragonwell. The price is unbeatable as well.
Overall, I’m not a huge fan of parsley flavors in teas, which have popped up in green teas, green oolongs, and young raws – particularly from Menghai. But, that said, these flavors in this tea were very pleasant, and quickly transformed into spiciness and then sweetness.
I highly recommend any green tea lover to try this. A high-quality tea at a great price. Complex flavors and development.
