ANHUA DARK TEA 
-Hei cha with golden flower-

 

Anhua Dark Tea is one of the most renowned Chinese Hei Cha, originating from Anhua County in Hunan Province, and internationally known for the presence of the precious Golden Flowers, the microorganism Eurotium cristatum.

During the slow post-fermentation and aging process, these golden blooms naturally develop within the tea leaves, giving the tea its unique character. Golden Flowers are not harmful molds, but noble fermentation cultures, traditionally sought after in high-quality dark teas.

In the cup, Anhua Hei Cha reveals a smooth, warm and deep profile, with earthy and woody notes, hints of toasted bread and malt, and a gentle natural sweetness. The body is round and velvety, with a long and balanced finish.

Historically consumed along the Tea Horse Road, Anhua Dark Tea has been appreciated for centuries for its digestibility and daily drinkability. A contemplative tea, ideal for those exploring the world of Chinese fermented teas.
