A cloud of fluffy green, this tea focuses its profile on the vegetable: zucchini, cooked greens, crisp celery cover every aspect of the verdant, while a little buttery warmth enrichens the infusion with a viscous texture. Though Biluochun is known for an enlivening bitterness, attention while steeping keeps this far from being overwhelming, and the liquor is particularly pleasant chilled. For those who have not been convinced by more pungent examples, this elevated grade is a gentle treatment for the palate.
For best results brew in a tall glass and fill with water before adding the leaves. Too high water temperature would burn the leaves, and the tea would taste bitter and sour.
