I think it’s time to highlight a Yunnan Green Tea on Sororitea Sisters. It’s been a while. Therefore, I declare, Yunnan “Purple Beauty” Green Tea from Lancang Spring 2016 from Yunnan Sourcing – the tea of the moment!
Yunnan “Purple Beauty” Green Tea from Lancang Spring 2016 from Yunnan Sourcing certainly IS unique! This is a Zi Juan “Purple Beauty” varietal that was grown in Lancang county in the Jingmai mountainous area. First flush of spring tea leaves were used and processed into a green tea. This is the first ever Purple Beauty Green Tea Yunnan Sourcing has offered.
This infuses to grey-purple color and the brewed leaves remain dark even after many infusions. It’s soup-like, brothy. It’s vegetal. I can pick up on seaweed and/or mushroom-like undertones while sipping on this. It has a nice sweet and bitter yin and yang going on, too! Yunnan Sourcing says the taste of this tea is Dan Cong meets Yunnan Assamica Green Tea.
I have to say that Yunnan “Purple Beauty” Green Tea from Lancang Spring 2016 from Yunnan Sourcing is unlike anything I have ever sipped on! It’s pretty fantastic! I’m sure it will appear on at least one of my TOP LISTS to be released soon! Be on the look out!
Here’s the scoop!
