Description

This is one of the unique and highest quality dark tea. Handmade processing in small quantity and highest material selection is guarantee of nice experience! We are happy to find new flavor sensations. This tea is definitely one of them.

This special and miraculous heicha comes from Jiangnan town, Anhua county, but also is the beverage most commonly enjoyed by a 106 years old woman – LiaoJuLian.

LiaoJuLian (1903 – 2009) was the Qing dynasty calligrapher, industrialist HuangZiYuan’s grandnephew daughter-in-law (child bride). The Huangs have its unique way to make tea: fresh tea leaves from mountain, were wrapped in bamboo shoot shell after the process of cooking, fermentation and smoked. Then placed the tea in a ventilated place to allow natural fermentation to occur.

Original flavor of dark tea with unique and lasting scent of pure natural bamboo. HuangZiYuan like it very much and named it “Yu Lei Zhu Xiang Cha(雨擂竹湘茶)”. For more than 100 years, the craft is traditionally passed down from generation to generation in family Huang. LiaoJuLian inherited this craft and passed on to the newer generations.

Now, her grandchildren are making these tea.
