Was intrigued by this tea when I came across W2T’s spring 2023 selections. It was the cheapest of the bunch, and twice as much tea. That alone did not sell me, but the description of this tea being the outcasts of several different tea producers in the Gan Lu region definitely piqued my interest. Of course, I simply could. not. wait. to pop open this bag and see what the tea would turn out like. The dry leaves were a happy variety of fresh green leaves, some small, some a little larger, some flat and oblong, while others were thinly rolled like needles. I even found a teeny little tea seed as I was brewing! The brew was all sweet corn and grassy vegetal flavors. it’s going to be fun teasing out all the flavors as I drink this one down

I bought their pre-Qingming Handmade Bi Luo Chun and their Anji Bai Cha. I restrained myself from also picking up their pre-Qingming Longjing, though I kind of regret it now.
I had their regular Bi Luo Chun last year and liked it, and I’m happy to report that the handmade version is even better! I’m still waiting for the Anji Bai Cha, which was shipped separately. If it’s anything like last year’s, I’ll enjoy it as well. Where do you get your Bi Luo Chun?
Glad you enjoyed this tea! I was thinking about buying it, but went with Teavivre instead.
Ooh, which teavivre teas did you go with?

Still, those are both excellent choices! BiLuoChun is possibly my favorite Chinese green
