Only a bud with a single unfolding leaf is plucked to produce the top grade Huangshan Maofeng. The Tea leaves look like tongue of sparrow. This Tea is picked by hand, and then carried back to the factory. The leaves are withered naturally for a few hours before they are roasted in a high heat oven to stop the oxidation. Then a lower heat oven will slowly roast the Tea in the span of two or three sessions, the length and intensity of each roasting depends on how much moisture is in the air.
