Details
- Cultivar
- Two main variants:
- Picking
- Spring (most valuable), summer, autumn. Best batches — early spring, before Gǔyǔ (谷雨).
- Raw Material
- Whole, undamaged buds and leaves. Without coarse stems. Rapid processing.
- Alkaloids
- Caffeine — 3–4%. Theobromine, theophylline.
- Amino Acids

- Essential Oils
- Linalool, geraniol and other components forming "毫香" — delicate, creamy-floral, characteristic precisely of downy cultivars.
