Description
Green Tea Chun Mei is a delightful and flavorful variety of Chinese green tea known for its bright, refreshing taste and floral aroma. Chun Mei, meaning “precious eyebrows” in Chinese, refers to the appearance of the tea leaves, which are carefully handcrafted into thin, twisted shapes resembling eyebrows.
This green tea is primarily sourced from the Fujian province of China, where it is harvested from young tea leaves and buds in the early spring. The leaves undergo minimal oxidation and are pan-fired to preserve their fresh green color and delicate flavor profile.
Chun Mei green tea is characterized by its grassy, slightly sweet taste with subtle floral notes and a smooth finish. It contains antioxidants, including catechins and polyphenols, which contribute to its potential health benefits, such as supporting metabolism and promoting cardiovascular health.
To prepare Green Tea Chun Mei, steep the loose tea leaves in hot water (approximately 175-180°F or 80-82°C) for 2-3 minutes. Adjust the brewing time based on personal preference for strength.
Green Tea Chun Mei can be enjoyed on its own or paired with light snacks and desserts. Its refreshing and uplifting qualities make it a popular choice for tea enthusiasts seeking a soothing and rejuvenating tea experience.
