The 710EGCG® deluxe grade green tea leaves are harvested by hands. Only the tender buds and the adjacent two young leaves at the tip of a tea plant branch can be plucked for hand processing in order to preserve the natural shape of the leaves. In this manner, much of the fragrant aroma of the young tea leaves is also retained. Many tea drinkers prefer deluxe tea. But its supplies are limited. The 710EGCG® specifications for the standard and deluxe green tea are identical.
