Original Tongmu Jin Jun Mei
No reviews
/
First invented in 2005, this Jin Jun Mei was initially invented for the tea lovers that don't like the smoky flavor of a Lapsang Souchong. It was invented together with the nonsmoked version of Lapsang Souchong. The main difference is Jin Jun Mei is using only buds, where the Lapsang Souchong is using one bud and two leaves.
It took 20,000 tea buds to make a pound of this tea. Each bud is selected carefully before being put into production.
The flavor is slightly floral and vegetal. The aftertaste is soft and malty. The mouthfeel is sweet and refreshing.
Notes: Soft, Wildflower, Caramel, Malty, Balance
Origin: Tongmu Guan, Fujian, China
