The little leaves are twisted wiry leaves that are dark green in color. The smell of the dry leaves is sweet and nutty.
Recommended brewing time is 3 minutes. I started out with a 2 minute infusion. The color is light.
First smell reminds me of a Japanese green. The taste reminds me of Genmaicha. A nutty tone is present, smooth, light, savory. The nutty tone is described by Leaf Spa as a woody note. This is a “pan-dried fine spring harvest green tea from the Jiangsu province of Mainland China.”
Went for a second flush on the leaves, it is ok, but not as good as the first pot. The nutty/woodsy notes are much weaker in this second flush. All I taste now are the grassy notes. Not bad, just different from the first cup.
You can purchase the Organic Bi Luo Chun Tea directly from the Leaf Spa Tea website.
