From Serene Tea

Cultivar: Gou Gu Nao

Harvest: April, Spring 2021

Origin: Sui Chuan, Jiang Xi, China

Tasting Note
Vegetative, umami, chestnut, mildly roasted

Full Description
Our buds only before Qing Ming Bull Dog Green Tea is sold out, and this is one bud and one leaf grade that’s harvested and produced right after Qing Ming. It’s slightly more roasted than the before Qing Ming one.

Bulldog Green Tea, or Gou Gu Nao in Chinese, is from a historically famous green tea production mountain named “Gou Gu Nao” or Bull Dog in central China. One of the peaks of this mountain range has a shape of a dog head, hence it’s named as Bull Dog Mountain. Gou Gu Nao is normally harvested by one bud and one leaf, and It goes through 4 stages of processing: withering, kill green through pan frying, mildly rolling and drying. Usually the Ming Qian green tea during the last week of March, but due to the warmer weather this year, the harvesting process took place by mid March.

One of the samples I plan to sipdown this year (from last year’s summer countdown by Nazanin). Cold brewed this overnight (16 hours maybe) 1 tbsp tea to 4 cups. a little weak!!
Spinach and cut grass. Drying on the tongue. Was a little hard to drink first thing in the morning, but the second half of the container I had after teaching dance and it was super refreshing.

Sipdown! (14 | 382)

The last one from my Tea Thoughts countdown box!

This is so lovely cold. It has a rich and buttery flavor with oodles of starchy vegetal notes and soft grains. It’s a bit like drinking a somewhat more buttery green pea and asparagus gazpacho, but with hints of fuzzy apricot and cashews. Quite rich and yet refreshing at the same time! There’s a hint of bitterness, likely just from letting it steep too long. I’m not very consistent about how long I leave the leaves in my cold brew pitchers, but it’s served me well so far!
