Overview
Best pick • solid other choice from Unknown origin
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
This is a wonderfully complex Liu Bao from the Wuzhou area of Guangxi. It was harvested and processed in 2019 from old bushes. This Liu Bao is very cleanly stored with little to no mustiness. The taste is thick, sweet with earth and wood flavors and a long lasting hui gan. The leaves that come in the basket are not a specific leaf grade but rather reflect the 2 leaf to 1 bud picking style used to harvest the tea. After wet piling the tea was packed into baskets for longer term storage. 6.5 kilograms per basket ** If you order the whole basket we will pack well to protect the basket but cannot guarantee it won't be damaged during transit. No returns or discounts due to damage to the basket!
