Jing Xian Gan Jian

A tea from the neighbouring region of the original Taiping Houkui. Jingxian Ganjian is processed in the same way - this tea is even processed in the traditional manner based on the Taiping Houkui from 1915, i.e. with beautiful, whole leaves that have not been pressed too tightly.

Tai Ping Hou Kui, "King Ape (from) the Taiping (Lake)", is a very beautifully crafted flat form tea (Bianxingcha) with very large leaves that were pressed into shape. Taiping Houkui is considered to be one of the classic Chinese green teas, although the first mention of him appears only after 1900, when the improved techniques made more beautiful and better qualities possible. The very long leaves of the Shidacha variety are fired in the wok and carefully pulled apart and pressed. Nowadays on the market one can also find light green leaves machine-processed resulting in very flat and long.
