Our Lu'an Guapian Tea, also known as Lu'an Melon Seed tea, is a  famous green tea from Lu'an City, Anhui Province, China and is listed on virtually all lists of famous Chinese teas. Lu'an Melon Seed Tea was a type of gong cha ("tribute tea") to the imperial family during the Qing dynasty (1644–1911).

 

Lu'an Melon Seed Tea's name is derived from the shape of the processed tea leaves, which are flat and oval and resemble a melon seed. Unlike most green teas which use the new buds in making tea, Lu'an Melon Seed Tea uses the second leaf on the branch. Each leaf's central vein is removed and the leaves are pan fried and shaped to stop oxidizing enzymes and dry the tea.
In contrast to the processing methods for other kinds of green tea such as Longjing, Lu'an Melon Seed Tea is a baked green tea which causes the taste of the tea to be different from other types of green tea in China.

 

Rather different for a green tea, this Lu’an Guapian has an undeniably sweeter taste and a strong aroma, both overlaid with an almost smoky, spicy tang; the taste is approachable with just a hint of that usual grassy greenness, though is far from overbearing.
