Details
- Picking
- Spring, predominantly during the "Qingming" period (清明, early April) and several days after. Premium batches (明前茶) are harvested before Qingming — in late March.
- Pluck Standard
- One bud and one leaf at initial opening stage (一芽一叶初展, yì yá yì yè chūzhǎn). Production of 500 g of finished tea requires more than 30,000 tender shoots.
- Raw Material
- Shoots tender, whole, uniform in size, without mechanical damage and pest traces. Freshly harvested raw material is immediately delivered for processing.

- Essential Oils
- Complex of volatile compounds, including furan derivatives and pyrazines (formed during finishing pan-firing), responsible for chestnut-nutty tone.
