Classic Laoshan Green Tea from Shandong

1. Family-Grown in Laoshan– Cultivated and processed by the Liang family in Laoshan Village near Qingdao, Shandong, where generations of tea-growing tradition meet a distinctive coastal mountain environment.

2. April First Flush – The bushes are protected from winter frost and early-spring cold beneath greenhouse coverings, then exposed to full sunlight before the tender leaves are picked during the first week of April.

3. Long Jing #43 Cultivar – Produced from the respected Long Jing #43 cultivar, this tea features small, tippy leaves that are tightly rolled without being heavily compressed.

4. Bold Savory Flavor– The infusion is thick, pungent, vegetal, and stimulating, with a robust green-tea character and less sweetness than the more delicate Imperial Grade.

5. Classic Everyday Character – Slightly larger, thicker leaves give this family-sourced tea greater intensity and body, making it an excellent choice for experienced drinkers who enjoy a lively, full-flavored green tea.
