Lahu Yellow first of all is a yellow tea from climate- and forest-friendly cultivation in northern Thailand. As such, it comes from “assamica” tea trees that are native there and thriving in their natural biodiverse environments. Due to the highly diverse natural input in the (forest) soil, such “wild” teas are particularly rich in taste and active substances, rewarding tea drinkers with a potential for numerous delicious infusions, whose taste is coined by a roundelay of high summer fruity-sweet notes.

Liquid Proust TeasGongfu, 6 grams. 125 ml gaiwan. Preheated.
Previous attempt was western with 4 grams, but too hot water used — bitter, due to human error.
Preheated gaiwan aroma was fruity. But I haven’t been expecting white grapes. This one was present in first two steeps too. Along with tropical fruits, papaya, lychee maybe, quite sweet and delicious. Smooth mouthfeel with long aftertate, where it takes more of “tea” notes as a little tannin there.
Third steep, was again to human error, a little bit more bitter. It seems that I devoted all the focus in the work today (preparing a shipment of highly flammable liquid) and can’t focus on the tea. The tropics are gone as well, but it is still pretty flavourful; somewhere between green and white teas in terms of flavours, meadow, herbaceous.
Following steeps were similar, until it was just gone. Worth 6-7 steeps. Be careful of water temperature, 75°C is absolute limit.
If I were one of your customers, I would be very glad you chose not to focus on the tea! Just don’t get it confused with the flammable liquid and drink the wrong one ;)
Well, that would be fatal. It is also very toxic in quantities I drink tea :)
Luckily, it was in closed container.
