OUR TEA PICKS FOR LUNAR NEW YEAR 2022
The Lunar New Year features a long list of rice cakes and rice balls that vary from region to region. But all agree that rice entrees, snacks, and desserts are a must! Puer is a popular tea to pair with heavier dishes such as dumplings, spring rolls, and longevity noodles.
When friends and family are visiting for the new year, it’s time to break out the good tea! Roasted oolong such as Da Hong Pao is an excellent choice for colder months, and will pair wonderfully with all the sweet treats on the table.
Da Hong Pao, also called Big Red Robe, is harvested in late spring and roasted multiple times over several months. This tea is characterized by four flavors – roast, minerality, floral and honey. It’s perfect for the tea connoisseur looking to dive into the world of higher end oolongs.
Finally, cap off the Lunar New Year 2022 festivities with green tea! The famous “clouds and mist” is a roasted green tea produced in many regions. This tippy, deep green lot from Anhui has vegetal notes of butter artichoke that finishes with a juicy sweetness. You’ll find that this tea produces an elevated cup for more experienced tea drinkers or an impressive introduction to higher end green teas for beginners.
