Premium green teaOrigin:
ChinaThis is one of the teas enjoyed by early American colonists. Hyson was tossed overboard in Boston Harbor and drunk by Thomas Jefferson at Monticello. This light, fresh green tea produces a green-yellow liquor with a medium body. Healthy, of course. We import ours from Anhui Province.
We private label this tea for the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum where our our owner serves as the museum's tea master.
Steep like a tea professional and never use boiling water on green tea. 165-175F is optimal.
This is one of my regularly rotating green teas from Elmwood. (Why would you buy from anywhere else?!) I drink 2 20oz kettles each morning, and while the second steeping darkens a bit, the flavor profile is still much the same. Love it!
Delicious tea. Thanks
I first dicsovered Young Hyson Green Tea in Williamsburg, Virginia. I purchased two 4 ounce packs to bring home at $10.00 each. I found a pound of the tea on Amazon for less which makes me very happy.
Another selection I tried to find the green tea for me. It has a darker color than Davidson tea's with a stronger flavor which I enjoy. price was right with Prime. I brew it through my coffee maker with no problem.
