First, the farmers enrich the soil with organic fertilizer. After two years, when the soil has become rich enough, they plant cuttings. They rear the plants for about three years. When young leaves sprout, they pick the leaves. Freshness is one of the most important factors for the taste of green tea. Dozens of veteran farmers pick the leaves in the shortest time and the leaves are steamed as soon as possible. The experts rub the steamed leaves to dry. Only by repeating these processes, do these long and thin tea leaves shine black like needles. Teas are examined from four points of view: aroma, shape, taste, and color of water. This product scored the highest marks in all four categories (198 points). Brew it at lower temperatures(70?Z). It gives water a golden yellow color, which is peculiar to hand-rubbed tealeaves, a thick, sweet aftertaste, and the delightful aroma of a true tea. Just one sip gives a sense of satisfaction. This is a blissful tea
