Liu’An heicha, also known as dark tea, a post fermented tea from Anhui province in China.
Tegong Liuan, which is made from what is lauded as “wild” material, is a brothy and intense tea with heavy hitting power underneath a smooth and thick body. Powerful aromas of spice and layered sweet flavors throughout.
Made to age, but enjoyable straight away.
Baskets contain ~250g of loosely pressed tea.

I ended up making this as a Western style cup which is something I don’t typically do with W2T’s heicha or, really, any heicha for that matter. I enjoyed the mug a lot though. It was surprisingly very smooth with a more medium body. The flavour had a bit of a pleasant funky and green sweet grass undertone and a nip of spice, but otherwise I kept think about how it mostly tasted like raw/unprocessed dark chocolate and peanuts. Not the first time I’ve gotten that chocolate and nut combo from a heicha – it’s one I enjoy a lot!
