Details
Picking
Spring, exclusively during the albinism period — from mid-March to mid-April. Peak quality — before Qīngmíng (清明前, qīngmíng qián).
Pluck Standard
Special grade (特级): single buds (单芽, dān yá). First grade: "one bud, one leaf" (一芽一叶). Second grade: "one bud, two leaves" (一芽二叶).
Raw Material
Young shoots in full or partial albinism stage. Whitish leaf color — mandatory visual quality indicator. Shoots without coarse leaves, stems, and foreign matter.
Alkaloids
Caffeine — in standard concentrations for green tea. Content relatively high, so people with increased caffeine sensitivity are recommended to limit evening consumption.
Polyphenols
About 10.7% — significantly lower than ordinary green teas (20–30%). Low polyphenol level explains virtually complete absence of bitterness and astringency.
Vitamins
Vitamin C, B-group vitamins.
