Description

Jin Zhu Mao Jian: a large needle-like green tea from Anhui.

The delicate leaves of Jin Zhu Mao Jian have evident bud having been picked early in the season then hand-rolled and pan fired. The liquor is light and bright yellow with an elegant, peachy character and floral fragrance. In cup it gives a smooth, delicate fragrant taste. It must be brewed 2-3 minutes using fresh boiled water at a temperature of around 80 degrees C.

Sourcing our tea

This tea has been chosen for its distinctive, balanced flavour, aroma and appearance. Our tea is carefully sourced from long-established shippers. We can therefore guarantee the quality and origin of each tea and that it conforms to UK food and drink health regulations and our own demanding grading requirements.

The benefits of loose leaf tea

This loose leaf tea enables the full flavour characteristics of the tea to infuse. This tea is chosen for its high grade which imparts the flavour and aroma characteristics for which this tea is best known. A extra time is necessary when infusing large leaf grades but you will be rewarded with a superior, more balanced cup. You will be well rewarded for your patience!

Packing options

These square, silver coloured caddies have hinged lids. Again, 60 gram, 125 gram and 250 gram options are generally available as options which can be selected from the drop-down list. Packets and caddies have full-colour labels.

    Product:
    Service: Quick delivery and strong packaging to protect tea. Great selection with good photos of tea and description. I find I need a notepad and pencil as the subdivided sections make it a little time consuming to compare prices and tasting notes. Best tea supplier I’ve used so far.
