Medium Roast Spring Rare tea

This unique sun-dried green tea offers a distinct profile with initial floral notes leading to a sharp yet light mouthfeel. Its straightforward character delivers a strong, lasting taste and a refresh. It leans floral, sharp and vegetal.

Water around 70–80 °C (158–176 °F). In a mug, steep 2–3 min. For gongfu, use 3–5 g per 100 ml, 15–30 s steeps. You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. The biggest mistake with green tea is using boiling water. Keep it well below that and you won't get bitterness.

Grown in Yunnan, China from the Da Ye Zhong cultivar. This batch is from the Spring 2025 harvest. The leaves got a medium roast after picking.

Starts at $4.50 from One River Tea, or about $0.12/g. A 25g package gets you around 4 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $0.72 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
