bi lo chun tea is one of China’s 10 Famous teas, bi lo chun tea was created in Ling Yuan Temple at Bi Luo Peak of the Dong Ting mountains at Lake Tai. It was called Astounding Fragrance for centuries because of the scent from the blooms of nearby peach, plum, and apricot trees.

During the Qing Dynasty, the Manchu Emperor Kang Xi (1662-1722 A.D) visited the resorts at Lake Tai. He changed the name to Bi Luo Chun after the Bi Luo peak of the Dong Ting mountains and because the finished leaf resembled a ting green snail. He declared it an Imperial tea.

Today it is translated as Bi Luo Chun and is the second most prized gourmet tea in China after Dragon Well. It is frequently offered as a gift, but be cautious—as with all rare teas, more is sold than is harvested.

This rare Chinese green tea can only be made once a year in the spring. For two weeks after the spring equinox and before the heavier rains, most tender buds with one partly opened leaf (“sparrow’s tongue”) are plucked. All drying, pan-firing, and rolling is done by hand.

A pound of the dry leaves will contain 60,000 to 70,000 bud-leaf sets.
