These tiny insects naturally encourage the plant to produce additional aromatic compounds as a defense, helping create the tea’s distinctive sweetness and complexity. Their presence also generally requires a clean growing environment, since leafhoppers are deadly sensitive to any pesticide use. Combined with the naturally creamy, buttery character of the \u003cstrong\u003eJin Xuan cultivar \u003cspan\u003e(\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e金萱乌龙)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e, this makes for a particularly interesting and artisanal tea.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditionally, a traditional \u003cstrong\u003eheavy charcoal roasting\u003c\/strong\u003e process is used, rather than the electric roasting methods more common today. The slower, more hands-on roasting develops deeper layers of flavor while complementing the bug-bitten sweetness of the leaf. The final result is something that is often described as tasting like \u003cstrong\u003emolasses, honey, brown sugar, caramel, and other sweet, toasty notes\u003c\/strong\u003e. This is a tea with a lot of craftsmanship behind it, from the insect-bitten leaves all the way through the charcoal roast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes from Staff:\u003c\/strong\u003e Charcoal Roasted and Bug bitten, this tea has a lot to offer. The taste is exquisite. It's probably one of the best teas you'll ever try.
