Chus note
Fish Hook Green Tea is traditional Vietnamese green tea known for its sweet and pure flavor. It is very popular with tea connoisseurs because of its mild acrid taste at the first sip but leaves a deep-sweet aftertaste. The tea name, First Hook Green Tea, is based on its shape after being picked and processed. The tea leaves will curl like a fish hook.
The manufacturing process, selection of tea leaves, and harvesting time make fish hook green tea different from other tea.
Young buds must be picked in the early morning, when the weather is nice, without rain or hot sun. Those knowledgeable about tea will understand that soil and weather factors greatly affect the quality of tea. If it rains a lot, the tea will be pale, not sweet. If the sun is hot, the tea is difficult to develop, productivity reduces, and the acrid taste produces strong.
The tea is best when it is harvested in the fall. During this time, the weather is cool, with little rain and mild sunshine. Therefore, the buds for making fish hook green tea will have the standard, through careful manual processing, which will bring the perfect aroma, color, and deliciousness.
