Tea Story
Tea Story
This exquisite Liu Bao Tea, crafted by the renowned Yi Yanhua, offers a unique blend of smooth, rice-like notes and delicate floral aromas. The tea leaves are dark and plump, steeping into a clear, reddish-brown brew.
As this tea ages, it develops "golden flowers" - a natural phenomenon that enhances its flavor and health benefits. These golden flowers are said to aid digestion, reduce greasiness, and lower blood pressure.
Whether you're hosting a gathering or simply enjoying a quiet moment, this tea is a perfect choice. Its elegant taste and potential health benefits make it a delightful and rewarding experience.
