Slow-grown, this tea has an astounding aroma and thick texture, with fresh, floral flavour and undertones of citrus. <p>Each year, we spend the early Spring in Asia with our partner farmers and master tea makers to perfect and select those Spring teas that truly capture the essence of the season: bursting with sweet, delicate flavour. We look for nuances of taste that can only come from authentic terroir and the work of the tea master - the unique signature of each batch. To lock in the original freshness, we package the tea directly at origin, ensuring it reaches you in the same way that it left the garden.</p>
<p>We discovered our Shimen Green Mountain in the organic, biodiverse, Ziliang garden at an elevation of over 1,000m on the spectacular Wuling mountain range. At such altitude, the tea has time to grow slowly and develop astounding aroma, texture and complex flavour notes. A light lime-green infusion, abundant floral aromas and a complex palate with subtle citrus undertones. Thick and satisfyingly sweet, this tea is highly prized at origin and so celebrated locally that it rarely finds it way outside of <a href="https://jingtea.com/shop/origin/china" target="_blank">China</a>. The tea master at the gardens, Mr. Li, has particularly strict picking methods: always only picking the best dry buds as when picked wet, tea leaves can dry unevenly causing bitterness, and it is the bud that often has the sweetest flavour. The result is beautifully downy tips on the dry leaf. Known in Chinese as 'Yinfeng' this means 'silver' and 'peak', much like the shape of the leaf.</p>GBP15https://jingtea.com/media/catalog/product/s/h/shimen-green-peak_infusion_gallery.jpghttps://jingtea.com/media/catalog/product/j/i/jing-shimen-green-mountain-loose-leaf-green-tea_001.jpghttps://jingtea.com/media/catalog/product/s/h/shimen-green-peak_loose-tea_thumbnail.jpghttps://jingtea.com/media/catalog/product/2/0/20150517_shimen-carousel-1.jpghttps://jingtea.com/media/catalog/product/2/0/20150517_shimen-carousel-2.jpghttps://jingtea.com/media/catalog/product/2/0/20150517_shimen-carousel-3.jpgcategory_hover:/s/h/shimen-green-peak_infusion_gallery.jpg1782JING Shimen Green Mountain Peak, 50g unit3333https://jingtea.com/media/catalog/product/s/h/shimen-green-peak_loose-tea_thumbnailbase.jpgInStock50g/s/h/shimen-green-peak_infusion_gallery.jpgMade Without Pesticides <p><img src="https://jingtea.com/media/wysiwyg/Shimen_Green_Mountain_Origin.jpg" alt="Shimen Green Mountain Origin" /></p>Green TeaLoose LeafRefreshingChinaZiliang Garden, Hunan, China0%SpringMeasure 4g or 2tsp per cup (250ml)Heat water to 80°CInfuse tea for 3 minutesYou can re-infuse this tea twice石门银峰3Grassyno_selection

This tea is wonderful and has now become my favourite. It has a clean, sweet taste similar to Sichuan Dew and Japanese Sencha but very slightly more floral. I reinfuse the leaves three times and it still has good flavour on the third cup. Thanks to Jing for offering this lovely tea!
