The difference between white tea, spring tea and summer tea

White tea Spring tea refers to white tea picked in spring, and summer tea refers to white tea picked in summer.

The differences are as follows:

1. Different picking time: spring tea is picked in February-April in spring, and summer tea is picked in May-July in summer.

2. Different tea quality: Spring tea has short growth period, tender leaves and low ammonia content, so the soup is clear in color, elegant in aroma and fresh and sweet in taste. However, summer tea has a long growth period, thick and hard leaves and high ammonia content, so it tastes slightly bitter than spring tea.

3. Different yields: the yield of spring tea is small, and it is often considered as a treasure in white tea; However, the output of summer tea is large and its value is relatively low.

Generally speaking, spring tea is better than summer tea, but the price of spring tea is higher because of its low output. Although the quality of summer tea is not as good as that of spring tea, it is more popular with consumers because of its large output and relatively low price.
