Jade Tips (Mao Jian)
Jade Tips (Mao Jian) Green Tea
Mao Jian grows high in the cool, misty mountain air and has a clean, round, refreshing flavour and a pleasingly sweet finish. This year's crop shows more wiry leaves and a more vegetal taste that is very soft, smooth and refreshing. A stunningly high-quality green tea for the price: great to drink everyday.
