Yunnan White Downy 9057A chinese green tea (Champion)

Excellent green tea from the Yunnan region. It consists of leaflets and tops covered with white fluff and twisted into small "snails". When they fall into the water they begin to unfold and reveal their original form which is the bud of the leaf together with the first leaflet. It is the best of its class and has the most buds.

Its extract is bright, light-colored, yellowish and clear. It has a wide range of fragrances. To many its smell reminds something of the saltiness of the sea and iodine and to others the smell of unripe olive oil.
