Original yellow tea from the Sichuan province, near Mount Mending Shan.
The traditional production method of yellow tea involves a unique step called "smothering." After roasting and shaping, the tea is tightly wrapped in cloth or paper and left to undergo smothering for several days at a temperature of around 122°F.
This process gives the tea a slight yellowish hue, along with its distinctive aroma and flavor profile.
Production: spring (March) 2023, Mount Mending Shan, Sichuan province.
