Green Velvet Tips (毛尖) – Out of Stock
$4.90 – $38.00
Origin: China
The perfect example of a delicate Chinese spring green tea, Green Velvet Tips is a large leaf and full bodied tea that steeps to produce a beautiful light emerald liquor with a soft green richness. In dry appearance the tiny buds are offset by the darker secondary leaves which turn bright green when steeped.
The refreshing vegetal aroma gives way to hints of bamboo, and its ‘cloudy’ appearance is a result of millions of superfine hairs from the tiny spring buds. It takes about 30,000 bud and leaf sets to make u a pound of tea, with each batch gently hand-rolled to twist and twirl the leaves into its final shape.
How to Brew:
Place a teabag or 1 – 2 teaspoons of loose leaves into a mug and pour 220ml of boiling water. Steep for 2-3 min. Good for multiple brews

THE WONDERFUL HEALTH BENEFITS OF GREEN TEA
Green tea, or Camellia sinesis, is a variety of tea made from unfermented tea leaves. Of the varieties of tea (green, black, white and oolong) green tea contains the highest concentration of polyphenols, a specific type of antioxidant. Green tea is also rich in EGCG, or epigallocatechin gallate, another substance that may give green tea its health benefits.
Anti-Cancer
The polyphenols in green tea may help kill cancerous cells, delaying the progression of tumors and playing an important role in preventing various types of cancer. The polyphenols in green tea may also help prevent breast cancer and improve the survival rate in women with ovarian cancer
Prevents Heart Disease
Regular consumption of green tea can help lower total cholesterol and triglycerides as well as increase HDL cholesterol. Green tea may also inhibit the absorption of cholesterol in the small intestines. Polyphenols in green tea may also help prevent atherosclerosis, which is the buildup of plaque on the artery walls, reducing the risk of developing coronary artery disease
Weight Loss
An extract of EGCG from green tea is often promoted for use as a weight loss supplement. In combination with the caffeine in the green tea, a specific type of polyphenol called a catechin may increase your body’s ability to burn fat as well as provide temporary increases in metabolism that help you burn off excess calories.
Anti-Diabetes
Traditionally, green tea was used to help control blood sugar levels. The antioxidants in green tea may help prevent the development of type 1 diabetes or help control blood sugar in individuals who already have diabetes
