Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
Make from a teji (special) grade blend of “original varietal” Liu Bao material and Guiqing varietal, this tea was processed using modern cold water fermentation process, twice steamed and twice pressed. The resulting tea has a very unique fragrance, with notes of wildflower honey, some fruitiness, and a slight herbal quality. The huigan arrives quickly, leaving a sweet taste in its wake. Although it’s relatively young by Liu Bao standards, this tea is still quite smooth and offers an excellent value for heicha lovers. $0.14-0.20/gram
