About Pomfong tea
Hello all!
Does anyone know anything about Taiwanese pomfong tea which is supposed to be some particular type of wulong? I have heard somewhere, that what makes this pomfong (?) special, is the fact that the tea leaves ar being sucked by some "tealeaf hoppers" during summer before the leaves are picked. This should lend some particular kind of aroma to the tea, but production is very limited because only these kind of basically "inferior" leaves are used. Does anyone know something more about this treasured tea? Are the leaves sucked by the adult tealeaf hoppers or by their larvae (or caterpillars)? Just curious, Yugen. |
