Restoration Intangible Cultural Heritage Experiential Studio is planning to host an event on Bi Luo Chun tea art at Suzhou ICH Shop Dongbei Street Branch（非一般的甄选铺·东北街店）this Saturday (April 17).
As one of China’s top ten famous tea brands, Bi Luo Chun tea has a history of more than 300 years. It is spiral in form and green in color. The picking work normally starts in early spring and the tea leaves are picked and roasted on the same day. The roasting process involves four steps: heating, heat-rolling, rolling and drying. The quality of the tea leaves hinges on the skills of the tea roasters.
Bi Luo Chun Tea Making Technique was included in the national-level intangible cultural heritage list in 2011.
Located in Suzhou’s Dongshan area where Bi Luo Chun tea originated, Suzhou Dongshan Tea Co., Ltd. has been committed to passing on the making techniques of Bi Luo Chun tea over the past decades.
Ye Huihui, senior tea specialist from Dongshan Tea Co., Ltd., will be invited to introduce the history, culture as well as picking and making techniques of Bi Luo Chun tea. Participants will experience the brewing of Bi Luo Chun and discover Suzhou’s tea culture.
Those who are unable to attend the event can watch it live-streamed through Douyin account FeiyibanFeiyi to feel the charm of tea culture online.
Currently, Suzhou Dongshan Tea Co., Ltd. is exhibiting and selling Bi Luo Chun products at Suzhou ICH Shop Dongbei Street Branch for a week. Don’t miss out!
