This tea is grown on Monarch Mountain in Yeuyang in Hunan Province. Junshan(君山
) has a unique flavor that is slightly nutty with hints of sweetness. Yellow tea is rare and consists of budlets or silver needles of the unopened shoots. By yellowing the leaves in piles, the aromas infuse deeply into the leaves as they are completely dried. All the buds are silky smooth when dry and almost shimmer with their small hairy covering. There is a faint woody, smokey taste that is very subtle. A special tea that is a good alternative to its cousin, the more common Baihao Yinzhen white tea. Use about one tablespoon or more (3-4 grams) and steep for two minutes with water about 180 degrees. Use three times to extract all that this tea has to offer.
