Best Green Tea for Beginners

Longjing is China\'s most famous green tea. It is nutty, sweet, and smooth with no bitterness when brewed correctly. Look for Hangzhou or West Lake origin for authenticity.

Biluochun is rolled into tight spirals and has a fruity, floral aroma. It is slightly more intense than Longjing but still very approachable for newcomers.

Huangshan Maofeng has a light, orchid-like fragrance and a clean, refreshing taste. It is a great choice if you prefer delicate teas.

Anji Baicha is unusually pale and rich in amino acids. It tastes mild, sweet, and slightly creamy, making it one of the easiest green teas to love.

Use water around 80°C, not boiling. Steep for 2 minutes. Boiling water will make green tea bitter.
