Da Ye Xiao Qing Tuo (big Leaf Mini Green Tuo Cha)
this tea was harvested in the spring from the meng hai tea tree. the maocha is sorted and the dry leaves are steamed. the leaves are then wrapped in small, cone-shaped cotton fabric bags and compressed into tuochas. the fabric is removed and the tuochas are left to dry. once they are dry, the producer wraps each tuocha in paper. because they used 3rd to 4th grade tea for the maocha instead of powder, you can see the leaves clearly in the dry tuocha.
