Instruction:
Bi Luo Chun is one of China’s 10 Famous teas, it was created in Ling Yuan Temple at Bi Luo Peak of the Dong Ting mountains at Lake Tai. It was called Astounding Fragrance for centuries because of the scent from the blooms of nearby peach, plum, and apricot trees.
During the Qing Dynasty, the Manchu Emperor Kang Xi (1662-1722 A.D) visited the resorts at Lake Tai. He changed the name to Bi Luo Chun after the Bi Luo peak of the Dong Ting mountains and because the finished leaf resembled a ting green snail. He declared it an Imperial tea.

Today it is translated as Bi Luo Chun and is the second most prized gourmet tea in China after Dragon Well. It is frequently offered as a gift, but be cautious—as with all rare teas, more is sold than is harvested. This rare Chinese green tea can only be made once a year in the spring. For two weeks after the spring equinox and before the heavier rains, most tender buds with one partly opened leaf (“sparrow’s tongue”) are plucked. All drying, pan-firing, and rolling is done by hand. A pound of the dry leaves will contain 60,000 to 70,000 bud-leaf sets.

Friendly Tips: The item is Mope Options, please select the net weight you want before you bid the item.

Bi Luo Chun is famous for its unique shape as well as the heavenly taste.
 Only the bud and a half-open leaf are selected. During hand processing,
 the bud-leaf set is carefully rolled into a tight silvery-green spiral that hold in the freshness longer.
 Some say the leaves resemble tiny green snails.
 
 Taste: Bi Luo Chun tastes like a fresh, crisp, spring day in country,
the velvety sweetness is well-rounded and the hint of floral notes leave a desirable and distinctive aftertaste.
