Misty Pine (aka Enshi Yu Lu) teacup

Misty Pine (aka Enshi Yu Lu) teacupSUMMARY Type: Green Tea Origin: Enshi County, Hubei, China Vegetal, Seaweed, Grassy Welcome to Misty Pine, where the tea is green and the mountains are, well misty. Most Chinese green teas are dry heated during the "sha ching" or "killing the green" step of tea processing to more or less stop the tea's oxidation, hence the green colour of the leaves. This tea however has been steamed during that step, giving it a more vegetal and seaweed like flavour
