Bi Lou Chun translates as “green snail spring”. It is a famous and quite rare tea from Jiangsu Province, China. Tiny, fuzzy new buds are curled into the signature snail shape, and when packed together have a soft mossy look. It is only harvested in a single, short season per year, and each kilogram contains 14 to 15 thousand shoots – that’s a lot of Tea Buds. It makes delicate, light green, cloudy liquor that is fruity and floral. Ours is Grade 1, a fantastic example of this famous variety, and of course we offer it at an unbeatable price.
