HOT ! 2022 Raw Spring Liubao

Liubao heicha, also known as dark tea, a post fermented tea from Guangxi province in China.

This tea was made on commission for white2tea in early spring of 2022.

Not the typical mass produced and pile fermented dark liubao. Raw may be a misnomer, but calling it green doesn’t quite seem right either, and some folk have even suggested this tea qualify as a yellow tea or some hybrid unfermented heicha. In China people often call it nongjia or farmer style, though it is rarely sold on the open market due to small production sizes and lack of proper accreditation. You will find similarities in this tea that spans genres – green tea, yellow tea, heicha, raw Puer – there is a reason you can’t pin it down easily. 

Bright aromas and sweetness with a hefty huigan (returning sweetness) that is sticky and refreshing. Lovely to drink now or age as you desire.

Each sample purchase is for 25g of loose tea. Each basket contains ~250g of tea.
