Story, Folklore, History


The Eyebrow (Chun mee) Teas:Eyebrow teas are a group of uniquely eyebrow-shaped green leaves, and have been the daily green tea choice for most of China for over 400 years. The leaves are first steamed and withered, then hand curled with great skill into a thin needle-like shape with a slight curve, ressembling a thin feminine eyebrow.
