I bought this Tea from Miro Tea most recently, it's a fine grade of Chinese Tea some of the earliest spring crops in Jiangsu province.

Green Snail Springtime (碧螺春). According to fable, originated from a tea tree watered by the tears of the dragon-betrothed girl Bi Luo as she cried for her dragon-slain (same dragon) beloved and then herself died - supposedly the tree sprouted leaves the next spring (chun.)

Bi Luo Chun means […] in Chinese

The tight green spiral looks like snail meat, and it's harvested in early spring
