[spring]

Spring usually marks the first harvest of the year. Once the spring monsoon calms down, tea farmers begin to pick new buds from tea trees, which grow out of nutrients collected throughout hibernation. Plants also use the longer days of the season to promote their growth. The harvest will last from March to mid-May.

Generally speaking, tea in this season often has a very light taste outline, soft body and rich aroma. Therefore, green and white tea harvested in spring are considered to be the best because they require the least processing. In addition, the quality of the harvest this season is lower, making the harvest more expensive. One of the most popular teas harvested this season is oolong tea.

[summer]

The summer harvest usually lasts from May to early August. Due to the vigorous growth of tea trees, most of the mass-produced teas are harvested in this season. Because these leaves grow for a shorter time, they have a bolder taste and almost no natural sweetness than those harvested in spring. Therefore, they are the perfect basis for seasoned tea, or eaten with compliments such as milk.

[autumn]

When the weather turns cool in autumn, the growth of tea trees slows down. This gives the leaves extra taste and complexity. The second harvest of oolong tea and other kinds of green and white tea is very common in this season. The autumn harvest is usually from September to November. Similar to the tea harvested in spring, these teas have rich aromas, full-bodied and distinctive floral aromas.

[winter]

Tea trees are usually dormant and do not grow new leaves at the coldest time of the year. Plants usually collect nutrients, especially carbohydrates, in this season to prepare for the spring harvest.

How climate change affects tea

Climate change may really leave a bad impression on you. There has been a long debate about how climate change affects food production. However, people are increasingly worried about how it will affect the quality of your food. Especially plants such as tea that are highly sensitive to climate. For example, studies have shown that excessive rainfall caused by climate change may dilute the taste of tea. In addition, in some areas, rapid fluctuations in winter temperatures can lead to frost on tea, which leads to changes in taste. Therefore, if these climate changes are not properly addressed, the taste of your tea may change dramatically.

Your tea depends to a large extent on the environment in which it grows. Tea farmers and producers all over the world are carefully observing the weather patterns, always bringing you the best tea!
