Chosen from the large-leaf species of early spring in Fengqing, harvested on the same day to ensure the raw materials are fresh and tender, resulting in dry tea fully covered with golden tips.
The tender bud tips are processed to deliver a sweet taste. During the fermentation process, they slowly turn golden yellow, dazzling like gold and jade leaves, with a high and penetrating tea aroma. The tea soup is notable for its fragrance and velvety texture, enveloping a rich honey sweetness, resembling sweet potatoes, with no added colorants. Each sip is like tasting spring.
