TASTING
A clean, fresh bean-blossom aroma — the breath of pre-Qingming right at hand.
Brisk and sweet, the liquor a tender green, bright and clear.
Shifeng is the core terroir of Longjing; the pre-Qingming first pick takes only the first unfurling bud and leaf. A clean, fresh bean-and-blossom aroma; the liquor a tender green, bright and clear, brisk with a thread of returning sweetness. Spring is something Hangzhou people understand best.

SPECIFICATION

- Green tea · 250g gift box
- Spec
- 250g gift box
- Origin
- Zhejiang · Shifeng, Hangzhou
- Craft
- Traditional pan-firing: flat and neat, a tender green, the high heat locking in the fresh fragrance of pre-Qingming.
- Water temperature
- 85–90°C; never pour boiling water directly onto the tender buds
- Brewing
- A glass or a white porcelain gaiwan with 3g of leaf at 85–90°C (let boiled water cool, lid off, for about a minute); add water first, then the tea. Let the buds and leaves open; drink after a minute or two, and when a third is left, top up — fresh and brisk, never bitter.
CARE
New-season tea, sealed in a light-blocking foil pouch; store away from light at room temperature, and once opened drink within 30 days to keep it fresh.
