“Wonderful, wonderful black tea. I got the 2022 harvest of this tea from my recent YS order, and it’s beaten most of the black teas I’ve drank out of the park. Good things about this tea first....” Read full tasting note

“I’ve been trying to sip down old teas, which I define as anything bought before 2017. This sort of qualifies, as it’s a 2016 harvest bought in the spring of the next year. Anyway, I remember...” Read full tasting note
“Bai Ye” (lit. White Leaf) Dan Cong is grown in Ling Tou village in the north of Raoping County (Guangdong Province). Bai Ye Dan Cong varietal plants are special in curved large appearance with light yellow-green crowns. The aroma has both Flower and Honey characteristics with a heavy pungent nectar quality. The taste is thick and pure with a sweet after-finish.
Our Bai Ye dan Cong was picked in late March. Instead of being processed like Dan Cong Oolong, this tea was processed into Black Tea by wilting in small cloth bags in the sun and then shade.
The resulting tea is incredibly complex and unique. Bai Ye Hong Cha has thick sweetness and a very pronounced baked sweet potato taste that lasts many many infusions. This tea is both excellent and peerless. You simply can’t have a similar experience with any other tea. Highly recommended for Dan Cong and Black Tea aficionados alike!
