Professional China Puerh Cake - Yunnan Puerh Tea Buds Ya Bao – Goodtea

Yabao come from the old tea trees, picked from compact winter buds, young Yabao is light in body but wonderfully nuanced, unlike any other teas, the buds are picked from ancient tea trees in middle to late winter when the bud is still tightly compacted and encased in a protective shell as it awaits spring, this particular Yabao is composed of very large buds that have not begun to open yet and allowed to sun dry completely without any other processing.

It has none of the earthy qualities of pu’er, the flavor is fresh and a little fruity somewhat similiar to a good white tea but more complex flavors. The brewed liquor is whitish and clear, and there is a hint of fresh pine needles in the aroma.
