Only the freshest single buds are hand-picked in the early spring mornings, usually completed within a short ten-day window around Qingming Festival. Each bud is carefully selected to ensure perfection, and producing 500 grams of finished tea requires an astonishing 50,000 to 60,000 of these delicate buds. This meticulous and labor-intensive selection has made Jin Jun Mei a valuable and prestigious tea. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"procontent_zx d-flex\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"procontent_zx d-flex\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJin Jun Mei's craftsmanship represents the exquisite evolution of the 400-year-old Lapsang Souchong tradition.
