Brewing tips: If you brew your Chinese tea in a gaiwan, always leave a little bit of liquid in the gaiwan between each infusion.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry and dark place. Seal the bag well and keep optionally in the freezer stored for longer periods of time. Keep the needed tea at room temperature.
Appearance: The dried tea leaves have long, thin leaves with dark brown, yellow and green hues, the traditional “Cao Mi (brown rice) Color” of Long Jing tea. The “Yu Ye (fish -shaped leaves)” indicate the first harvest of the year. The smell of the dry leaves is a combination of sweet roasted green beans and fresh roasted peanut flavor complemented with a tiny hint of anise. The wet leaves give the same sweet smell of green beans, but sweeter complemented by a subtle steamed asparagus flavor.
The tea has a pale green color and excellent clarity. The tea has a nutty flavor, followed by a refreshing vegetable flowery taste.

Very soft and creamy tea. The dry leaves have little smell. From the wet leaves the first I notice is a sweet, red-fruity smell, almost like smelling a cup of lemonade. Then more savory notes follow; beany, roasted smells. In the mouth there is a very sweet vegetal aspect and a creamy, soft feel. With a somewhat stronger cup, upon swallowing there is a soft astringency. Not biting but more like a pleasant stroke on the tongue. The sweetness lingers nicely in the nose.
