Bi Loo Chun Jade Snail Spring

Description

Origin: China

Cultivar:

Flavor: Sweet Floral, Soft Smokiness, Crisp Finish

Jade Snail Spring, Bi Loo Chun, is a Chinese green tea variety that has been pan fried, then tightly rolled into buds that resemble spiral shells, or the scroll of a violin. The dry leaf is wonderfully fragrant, with a smoky, floral, brightness. While steeping, the tightly rolled leaves unfurl right before your eyes, and deliver intricate notes of floral sweetness, soft smokiness and a hops-like crispness. Try steeping our Jade Snail Spring multiple times, smokiness and a dry white grape character lingers. Jade Snail Spring is an excellent, high quality Chinese variety.
