Chinese Teas

Green Teas

In addition to the special kinds listed below, teas are marketed under the name China Green, or name under the province, for instance Fujian Green, Guangxi Green (Guiqing). This does not necessarily indicate that they are an inferior grade of tea, and in fact some sold this way may be quite as good or identical with some of the "name brands" below. Unfortunately, quality may not be consistent due to the differences in picking times.
