Early Spring Gan Lu, “Sweet Dew”

The first green tea of 2025 — harvested in February, before the Qingming Festival! Limited quantity available.

Delicate, soft, and rich in subtle shades. A signature feature: early spring buds and young leaves, generously covered with fine white fuzz.

Aroma

Mineral-toasty, buttery, honeyed, nutty, sweet and pastry-like.

Taste

Sweet, baked, gentle, juicy, floral-honeyed, with a slight bitterness that gives way to a juicy, long-lasting pastry-like aftertaste with notes of fruit and flowers.

Effect

Refreshing, inspiring, and evoking a light spring mood.

Harvest

February 2025, Sichuan Province, China.

How to Brew

When brewed gently with water at 65–75°C (149–167°F), it lives up to its name: sweet, divine dew!
