Que She

The source of the Yangce river is in the city Yibin, in Sichuan province, where the rivers Jinsha and Minjiang also meet. it is called "the first castle of the great Yangce". The Que She is a flat, longish shaped tea made with the water of these beautiful mountains. The shape is like a "sparrow tongue", that is where its name, Que She comes from.
It has a bright green color and a fresh fragrance. Its infusion has a yellowish-green color, whit the fine hairs of the tea leaves swimming on the top. Its fragrance is reminiscent of young chestnuts, and it has the aroma of green bamboo. It's sweet aftertaste, "Hui Gan", lingers for a long time.

Que She is made of small and middle leaf size tea variants that were grown in Yibin city, in the middle and southern part of Sichuan. Tea harvest starts really early here, in February, about a month earlier than teas of Zhejiang, Jiangsu or Anhui Provinces. The reason for this above the good temperature, the fertility of the land and the amount of rain is that on the tea fields they plant oshmanthus and ginko trees, and the way the trees let the light through in an irregular pattern, it helps the tea trees grow. This is all thanks to the exceptional natural conditions.
The rules of tea picking are also very strict, the leaves are sorted through several times, leaving only the wide, youthful, regular leaves of the same shape to go into the tea.
