Yellow Tea from the Huo Mountain
Huo Shan Huang Ya
Premium quality yellow tea from the north of Anhui Province. Not so well-known, but we are confident that this will change soon.
Origin:
Huoshan County, in the Northwest of Anhui (Lu-an district)
Taste: Tones of chestnut and smooth like the best white tea with a distinctive character.
Tea-Adventure connects tea enthusiasts with tea producers who care for their product. We select only the finest handpicked leaf tea, from tea gardens in the remotest mountain locations in China. We buy directly from the farmers and buy only tea without artificial additives. The tea’s taste and quality first and foremost. We consider too the welfare of the workers and the impact that the production process hason the environment. When tea tasting, we pay particular attention to the fragrance and appearance of the leaves. It's essential to feel good after drinking a cup of tea.
I’m so happy!! A few minutes ago the postman deliverd my first order from tea-adventure :-).
The first impression is favourable. The teas are packaged in aluminium foil coated bags with ziplocks, the kind where you have to cut off the top part before being able to open the ziplock and these bags were placed in a cardboard box. What I especially like about this is that (a) de bags can be used for storage due to the ziplock and (b) the tea leaves can’t get crushed in transit b/c of the box.
I’m having my first cup of yellow tea ever. It is very reminiscent of Dragon Well, although – perhaps – with a somewhat different aftertaste. I’m not really sure what it is. A bit ‘peppery’? A very very slight smokey-ness? Is it the chessnut note? I’ll first have to taste both this tea and the Dragon Well to try and pinpoint the difference so I won’t be rating this tea at this point.
Anyways a very good start of the weekend :-)
