"Silver Hooks" made in early spring of silky sprouts grown in tea plantation in the Fengqing county (Lintsan District, North-Western region of Yunnan province).
In the dry form it has long, thin, curled silver-green leaves and flagella twisted fluffy sprouts. The aroma of dry tea is rich, grassy with hint of nuts. The brew is transparent and light golden-green.
The bouquet of brewed tea is fresh, grassy-woody, with notes of fresh berries, herbs and young forest nuts. The taste is juicy, voluminous, slithering, sweet, slightly astringent, with a delicate berry sour (has a lot to do with ripe puers). The aroma is bright, grassy-floral. Pleasant, refreshing aftertaste.
Brew it with boiling water under 90 ° C in a gaiwan, glassware or an adobe clay teapot for green varieties. The proportion of tea to water: 5 g to 100 ml. Drink it after a quick brew slowly increasing the exposure. Holds up to 6-7 brews.
Excellent choice for everyday teatime in the light time of the year - bright, juicy, refreshing.
