Overview
Best pick • solid other choice from Unknown origin
This micro-oxidised tea is bright and creamy with a soft and silky texture. It is incredibly aromatic, making full use of the famous floral bouquet of the Koushun cultivar. A rather recent development, bihakkocha (微発酵茶 - micro-oxidised tea) is a term used to describe a few newly developed Japanese teas. Most commonly, it refers to very lightly oxidised oolongs such as this one, produced in the style of Taiwanese Baozhong (sometimes called Paochung).
