2024 Green Tea from Zhejiang Province, China
As shown in its name, this tea is made of An Ji green tea buds, that have a beautiful whiteish color. It was harvested and made in the famous Anji county, Zhejiang province.
The shape of the fresh tea leaves recall the feather of a Phoenix, and like most Baihao Yinzhen teas it has a bright green color underneath the fine, fluffy texture.
The tea is very fragrant, fresh and creamy soft. The leaves steam sweet and slightly spicy aromas, like cinnamon rolls and cacao. The flavor is exceptionally aromatic and rich. It is sweet-woodsy, the cacao and almond flavors playing the main role. It is not an edgy nuttiness though, more like the mellow almond cookie kind. The liquor is gently creamy, leaving a velvety mouth feel. The sweet, fresh aftertaste is lingering in the throat for long after drinking.
An Ji Bai Cha is exceptionally high in polifenol (10-14%) and amino acid (6-9%). Its amino acid content is nearly 4 times higher than that of other green teas, which makes it a great help in building a strong immune system.

STEP 1) Warm your teapot. Pour boiling water into a gaiwan or teapot, let it sit for a little while, then discard all the water.
STEP 2) Fill your pot with tea leaves in a 3g/150ml ratio, pour boiling water on them and brew for 30 seconds.
STEP 3) Serve. Pour the tea into a pitcher, and then into cups.
STEP 4) Brew again.
❖ For the second infusion, steep it for about 5-10 seconds. For every other infusion after that increase the steeping time (to about 35-40 seconds).
❖ Make sure to open the lid of the teapot between infusions, to prevent the leaves from cooking.
❖ This is how we recommend brewing this tea, but we all have our preferences, so try experimenting to find the way you like it the most.
