The harvest of this tea begins early in the morning within the first two weeks of the new season's tea growth - late March to early April. Only the top 2 leaves and a bud are carefully plucked from the tea bush. This way, the tea leaves are still "hairy" when the steaming and drying process is started. Even though it is classified as a green tea, it has visual appearance of white tea and could be easily mistaken. The taste is exceptional nonetheless.
