Laoshan Green 2020 First Harvest

头采崂山绿茶

This is the first harvest of our Laoshan Green. The leaves are noticeably smaller than the second harvest, and the flavor is more intense, more rich and buttery. 

A beautiful tea from the family tea farms of our good friend Mr. Tang. The tiny tea gardens are nestled between the ocean and mountain, overlooking the Yellow Sea in one direction and facing the magnificent cliffs of Mount Lao in the other. Qingdao is located in northern China where temperatures are lower. This allows the tea leaves to grow slower, yielding a richer green tea. This unique green tea is a product of the unique terroir, mountains, cloud and mist, ocean, and spring water from Mount Lao.
