 Details: Bi Lo Chun, a green tea from Jiangsu Province, China, offers pronounced roasted vegetal flavors of grilled endive with a somewhat bitter bite. You'll enjoy its charming floral and citrus flavors.
 Dry Leaves: A mixture of dark green, almost bluish gray, spiraled, wiry filaments coated in fuzzy yellow down.
 Liquor: Pale green, slightly cloudy from the down.
 Aroma: Light and sweet, with the roasted sweetness of brown sugar and a vegetal base note. There are baked notes from drying the leaves on a hot wok.
 Flavors: The faintest hint of flowers is nearly matched by the roasted vegetal flavor.
 Caffeine Level: Caffeinated
 Body: Light-bodied, slightly brisk. The briskness dries the mouth slightly.
 Brewing Time: 3 minutes
 Brewing Temp: 175º
