Hi Melinda,

It has a dainty name in Chinese which is "Nü Er Huang", which tranlsates to
"Daughter's Ring", but I prefer to call it "Maiden's Curls", sounds
prettier, don't you think?

It's a great tea...but I didn't get mine from Stash...

Melinda, another name of this tea is Yuet Wah Cha meaning Jade ring
tea. It is green tea as samarkand says. I had this tea in Hong Kong
and my Chinese friend told me- this tea is also knows as tonic tea in
China. This ring looking tea has many verities and the price also
depends on the quality.

That's a good point Ripon...when I was looking for other websites last
night that may have had what Ulf was looking for, I did find a site
that was selling ring tea as a tonic, along with assorted other
Chinese herbal ingredients. Very interesting...I myself am so happy
that something I enjoy so much can have good health benefits too. And
even if it didn't...well, it's easier on my stomach than coffee.

Ring tea as a tonic, where can I find this source? Sounds dubious to me,
where I come from it is just known as a green tea that's been folded and
rolled nicely. The tonic part is rather news to me...

Any tea is a tonic since it contains caffeine.

The site (and I can't believe I found it again) was at

http://www.acumedic.com/prplindex/index_ptt.html


under "Longevity 'Golden Ring'Tea". The site does not provide a
picture so I don't know if it's the same thing as what we are
(generally) talking about. Also it does not SAY it's a tonic, it is
just for sale on a Chinese medicine website so I made a leap
of...inference.
