Yueyang Yellow Tea 50 g

Yellow tea, the most underrated among the six major tea categories, finds its champion in Yueyang Yellow Tea 岳阳黄茶. It masterfully integrates various processing techniques, including the "kill-green" of green tea, the fermentation of black tea, the "wet piling" of dark tea, the withering of white tea, and the roasting of oolong tea. This embodies the "golden mean" of Chinese tea culture, earning it the reputation of "the golden mean in tea." Yueyang Yellow Tea harmoniously combines the fresh fragrance of green tea, the delightful character of white tea, the lingering charm of oolong tea, the refreshing quality of black tea, and the richness of dark tea. Its infusion is mellow, sweet, smooth, and richly aromatic, offering a multi-layered and pleasurable tasting experience.

The uniqueness of Yueyang Yellow Tea lies in its precious and original "Yellow Tea Process." The "double yellowing" fermentation technique, painstakingly developed by tea masters, is considered a groundbreaking innovation in China. This process endows the yellow tea with a mellow and durable flavor, a lasting rich aroma, and a bright infusion. The exclusive yellow tea varietals, combined with the meticulous brewing method using spring water, result in a tea liquor of pure color and intense fragrance. This showcases a high level of craftsmanship characterized by sophisticated and complex procedures, truly a masterpiece born from the perfect synergy of opportune timing, favorable location, and human expertise.

Yellow tea is acclaimed by connoisseurs as the "most 'measured' tea" because its Yellowing process is exceptionally precise; the slightest misstep can ruin the entire batch. This particular product uses only the finest top-grade buds, treated with the "double yellowing” process, which significantly reduces bitterness. Its nature is gentle, sweet but not cloying, making it an ideal choice for tea drinkers who find green tea too "cooling". More importantly, during the yellowing process, yellow tea produces a significant amount of digestive enzymes, which aid in gastrointestinal digestion, making it particularly suitable for individuals with a weak spleen and stomach or poor appetite. Upon opening, a delightful, sweet corn-like aroma greets the senses. The first infusion yields a light yellow, clear liquor, with a sweetness reminiscent of biting into a corn kernel. When brewed hot, it evokes the sweetness of sugarcane; when cold-brewed, it presents the fragrance of fresh, tender corn. Even by the third infusion, a delicate, lingering fragrance of the tea hairs remains, offering an endlessly evocative experience.
