Huo Shan Huang Ya is a rare Yellow tea. The manufacturing process of Yellow tea is similar to Green Tea. The flavour however is augmented with an additional step translated as “sealing yellow”. The tea is quickly sun dried to stop any enzyme activity that may cause oxidation, and prior to firing, the tea is lightly steamed and blanketed with a cloth, allowing the tea to absorb its own essence.

Appearance

Large hand picked mixtures of downy single bud and one-bud-one-leave varieties. Yellow tea leaves stand vertically during the steeping process like stalagmites in the cup, creating a beautiful visual presentation. The infusion is pale yellow.
