Dong Pian, or sometimes is called "winter sprout", is a late winter tea that harvests in between the winter and spring harvest. This is usually the young leaves that grow late in the season before the tea plant goes into winter dormancy. Because the plant grows in the cold weather with shorter sunlight, it takes longer to grow and contains higher Theanie. As a result, Dong Pian is usually more luscious and sweet.
This season T Shop brought in both Yushan (winter harvest) and Yushan Dong Pian from the same farm.
