“Feel like you want to brew some longjing but you don’t have any? Love a few funky mushroomy notes here and there? This tea is for you! Good energy and duration. It brews like a sheng, tastes most...” Read full tasting note
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 autumn of 2021.
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.
Lively aromas with a sticky sweetness and refreshing taste. Lovely to drink now or age as you desire.
Each basket contains ~250g of tea.

Yunnan SourcingFeel like you want to brew some longjing but you don’t have any? Love a few funky mushroomy notes here and there? This tea is for you! Good energy and duration. It brews like a sheng, tastes most like a green, and smells like oolong. Weird combination but it’s great. It has a tendency to go astringent, so dont brew too hard…unless you like it that way. I ain’t your mother.
Flavors: Asparagus, Hazelnut, Honey, Mushrooms
