Yellow Flower (Huo Shan Huang Ya)
|
|
Grown at an elevation of 1000+ meters, this is an organically grown, hand-crafted yellow tea, from Anhui Province. Its long, shapely deep-green leaves have been carefully crafted to bring out its deep smooth and lush floral character. Astringency in yellow teas is rare as the extra steam or oxidization increases it sweetness. Always a refreshing and naturally sweet tea that offers liquor that is strikingly clear and clean. This is an excellent tea for everyday consumption.
