Tee aus Korea Korean green teas resemble the Chinese Mao Jian, yet the leaves show less hair. They are also fired in a wok, however, they are dried by fans during the night between the firings. In order to give them their form, they are rolled and slid back and forth in the wok by hand. Korean green teas are quite sweet, the tart green tea note varies from strong to smooth.
