The name Bi Luo Chun<\/strong> is related to its main features: \u201cBi\u201d \u2014 rich green color, \u201cLuo\u201d \u2014 the form of a curled tea leaf resembling a snail, and \u201cChun\u201d is early spring, the season of harvesting this tea. This tender and surprisingly refreshing and aromatic tea is grown in the mountain area of Dun Tin in the east of China, where tea plantations are mixed with fruit gardens. Taller fruit trees protect the tea plants from summer heat and winter cold but they also imbibe the tea leaves with a unique aroma \u2014 the white fur on the leaves absorbs bright scents of the blooming fruit trees. A short and reduced processing preserves the maximum of healthy elements, of which the tea leaf has an abundance. The leaves are manually twisted into spirals. Bi Luo Chun is in the \u201cgolden three\u201d of the best green teas in China together with Longjing and Mao Feng.<\/p>\n

Bi Luo Chun is a refreshing and energizing green tea, that enhances mental and physical working capacity. It is rich in amino acids and polyphenol compounds, contributing to general health, and antioxidants, vitamins, and microelements.<\/p>\n

The tender emerald brew has a flower and honey aroma and a fresh, slightly fruit flavor with melon notes in the aftertaste. Brewing Bi Luo Chun is a beautiful process, which is why we recommend using transparent teaware. The secret is that the water is not poured onto the tea, but the leaves are put into the water. First, the tea leaves will drop to the bottom but soon they will unwrap and a \u201cdance of snowflakes\u201d will begin \u2014 tea leaves will take a vertical position and start to go up and down. This inspiring view will turn a plain tea party into an exquisite ceremony.<\/p>\n
