This tea is one of our Pure Green selections. Check out the entire delicious collection here! An elegant Chinese green tea from the Lin family farm in Anxi, Fujian, made from young leaves and hand-rolled into darling spirals that open prettily as they infuse. The name comes from the shape of the leaf (a fairly common naming practice for Chinese teas). These ones are said to look like the earrings popular with young Chinese girls! The flavor is light and minerally with fantastic resteepability! Ingredients: Green tea (& jasmine essence for the jasmine base) Approximately 60mg of caffeine per cup for both classic and jasmine base Steep at 175° F or 79.4°C for 2-4 min
