Xue Long tea, also known as ‘Snow Dragon’, is a rarity from the Fujian province, in south eastern China across the sea from Taiwan. A fine, tippy leaf, twisted flat to help the tea retain its extraordinarily soft, velvety characteristics. An elegant speciality.
Fujian province in south-eastern China lies across the sea from Taiwan (in fact some parts of Fujian are administered by Taiwan, and Taiwan used to be a part of Fujian) and is home to 35 million people. Fujian is a mountainous province, which has made Fujian isolated throughout its history, particularly bordered by the Wuyi mountains to the north (Mount Wuyi is a UNESCO World Heritage Site). Fujian has a subtropical climate, with an average annual temperature of 18 degrees. [WSIN16413]Strength: 1/5.Best time of day for drinking: Evening.Suitable for drinking with milk? No.
