Tea Story
Tea Story
This tea is meticulously crafted by Tan Aiyun, a representative inheritor of the Guangxi Autonomous Region's Liubao tea-making technique. Aiyun Tan is a pioneer in the transition from handcrafted to mechanized production of Liubao tea, adhering to both tradition and innovation. By integrating traditional and modern techniques, she has led the entire Liubao tea industry towards innovative upgrades. Although this tea is produced on a modern automated, continuous, and clean production line, it completely restores the taste of traditional handcrafted tea.
This aged Liubao tea is made from top-grade Liubao tea raw materials from the core production area, using an improved light fermentation modern process and aging in the pinewood dry warehouses of its original production area, Liubao Town. The combination of these key factors creates its unique aged aroma, featuring floral and betel nut notes. The tea soup is rich, bright, clear, and amber-colored, with a noticeable sweet aftertaste, smoothness, and heaviness. This is a highly cost-effective tea, suitable for both immediate consumption and long-term storage.
