Additional Information
The highest grades of White, Yellow and Green Tea are made from tender tea shoots picked early spring. These young tea shoots may consist of a single terminal bud, a bud with an adjacent leaf or a bud with two adjacent slightly unfurled leaves. It is generally required that the leaves are equal in length or shorter than the buds
The more-oxidized tea, such as red or oolong, are made from more mature leaves. Anxi Tieguanyin, grown in the tea region of Anxi in Fujian, is made from one bud with two to four leaves.
Traditionally these tender tea shoots are picked before 5 April, or the Qingming Festival.
