Some people like their green tea soft and sweet, others may prefer a good umami. Yet this leaf shoot tea is neither. Its brisk, lively full body is accentuated with a refreshing aroma and a distinct note of bitterness. After Longjing, of all the other green teas from the Zhejiang region, my personal strongest preference goes to this traditional green tea form of Bamboo Leaf produced in Kaihua. To me it is an alternative to a shot of single malt in the evening, or an afternoon kick of espresso. Maybe more pleasant and invigorating.

This style form is produced in a few other tea regions in China. The taste profile does vary from region to region, and even from farm to farm, tea master to tea master. In Emei Shan in Szechuan, the traditional form style name, Zhu Ye Qing, which transliterates as Bamboo Leaf Green, is registered as a brand name by a powerful local tea company. Other farmers and tea companies who have been producing in this same style form are then required by law to sell their products in different names. One of them is Mingshan Shihua.

Tea Hong’s Bamboo Leaf is a rare quality representing not only the broader taste profile of this style form, but also the intriguing intricacy that gives true quality tea its elevating magic.

Myths about White Teas:
White tea is a categoric name for the group of teas that are produced using a white tea processing method. Although the name did originate from tea cultivars with downy white hair, not all white teas look white.

Compare a White Peony from Fuding (福鼎) and one from Zhenghe (政和). Both of these are the earliest origins of the category. Both have developed their own cultivars for the category. While the style in Fuding is shorter withering for a whiter appearance and a lighter body, that in Zhenghe takes a much longer withering process that results in a deeper colour and a fuller body. Yet both are an oxidised tea and not a green one…

Sharing a user's review on one of our matcha selections:

A very enjoyable matcha with a strong personality, as mentioned in the description. I was inspired to get a new whisk for koicha-style so that I could experience Setsubai in its full glory – and I’m glad I did.

4 grams gently kneaded in 40 grams of water using a Matsuo-ryū naka-araho whisk renders quite an intense experience, to say the least, with dense yet vivid flavors that lean towards earthy, brothy, seaweed, and mushroom-like, rather than green or grassy.

The interplay between the strong umami and persistent briny qualities makes this one worth savoring, regardless of if it’s kneaded flat, whisked finely, or dare I say foamed aggressively?

Although I continue to learn and practice with a 1:10 ratio, I find myself gravitating towards 1:20 and using 5 grams of matcha in 100 grams of water. I get a really nice, clean, subtle and neutral note of persimmon fruit that seems to hold the composure of this entire flavor profile together.

Even at 1:50 and beyond, the flavors and personality of this tea come through despite them being relatively thinned out initially. The flavors stack in the background and eventually come to the forefront, planting themselves firmly on the palate. It’s nice to see matcha with this kind of torque.

I’m on my second tin and I don’t think it will be my last.
