Product Description

This eyebrow shaped green tea has a unique flavour profile; a smooth tasting green tea with a subtle lingering aftertaste which can be described as plum-like and lightly vegetal.

To create the “precious” shape of the tea for a Chunmee tea, leaves are hand plucked and processed immediately to stop the oxidation process by withering and then steaming to maintain a green leaf. Leaves are then fired and hand rolled to create the signature eyebrow shape.

Chunmee has been a staple of tea drinking in China, dating back to the Ming Dynasty, and is one of the most popular to date.

Green teas are delicate; they are best brewed at a low temperature for a short period of time.
