Liang Zi Long Zhu is a Yunnan black tea from the small Chang Xing factory, which specializes in high-quality organic raw material. The material was selected from the spring 2022 harvest and picked in a garden near the village of Mengsong, from large tall-trunk trees.
Tender leaves and buds are gathered into neat balls. Skilled processing has made the tea light, refined and very convenient to use.
