Biluochun is a traditional famous tea in China and one of the top ten famous teas in China. It belongs to the category of green tea and has a history of 1000 years. Biluochun is also called "Biluochun in Dongting" because it is produced in Dongting Mountain and Dongting Mountain in Taihu Lake in Wuxian County, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province.

Historically, there were two mountains in ancient Taihu Lake, one called Dongting Mountain and the other called Dongting Mountain. These two mountains are generally called Dongting Mountain. However, this Dongting Lake is not another Dongting Lake. Dongting Lake, which we are familiar with, was called Yunmeng and Jiujiang in ancient times, and is known as Dongting Lake in 800 miles. Dongting Lake area has many historical sites and is a famous land of fish and rice.

Picking characteristics of Biluochun

Biluochun has three characteristics: first, it is picked early; second, it is picked tender; third, it is picked clean. Mining around the vernal equinox every year, and ending around Grain Rain. The quality of pre-Ming tea collected from vernal equinox to Qingming is the most precious.

Usually, the raw materials with bud leaves and bud length 1.6 ~ 2.0 cm are picked, and the leaves are rolled like finches, which is called "finches". It takes about 68 ~ 74000 buds to fry 500 grams of high-grade "Biluochun". In history, 500 grams of dry tea has reached about 90 thousand buds, which shows that the tea is tender and the picking skills are extraordinary.
