Sparrow's Tongue Green Tea 雀舌竹青綠茶

A Vernal Gift from the Mountain Mists
Harvested in the earliest days of spring from the misty mountains of Emei, Sichuan, Sparrow’s Tongue Green Tea comes from traditional seed-grown tea trees cultivated in the region for generations. The slender buds, delicate as a sparrow’s tongue and vibrant as fresh bamboo leaves, are carefully picked at their peak freshness.
Grown in Emei’s cool mountain environment and protected by its rich natural ecosystem, this tea develops a remarkably clean and lively character. The infusion is fresh and delicate, with gentle sweetness, subtle vegetal notes, and a lingering, refreshing finish that captures the essence of early spring.
The first sip is bright and crystalline. Delicate aromas of fresh bamboo leaves and sweet bean notes rise with the steam, accompanied by a silky texture that gently awakens the palate. With each infusion, the fragrance unfolds in layers, revealing greater depth and complexity.
To drink this tea is to experience the quiet freshness of Mount Emei in spring. Like a walk through mist-covered bamboo groves, it offers a sense of clarity, coolness, and calm that lingers long after the final sip.
