Anhua Hei Cha, a treasured dark tea from Anhua County in Hunan Province, China, is renowned for its rich flavor and traditional craftsmanship. Nestled in the misty mountains of this region, the tea is cultivated in fertile soil that imparts a unique character to every leaf.
The tea undergoes an intricate post-fermentation process (wo dui) and is aged to develop its signature earthy, woody flavor with hints of nuttiness and sweetness. Fuzhuan stands out, featuring visually striking golden flowers (Jinhua).
Steeped in history, Anhua Hei Cha was once a prized trade good along the Ancient Tea Horse Road. Today, its smooth, mellow taste continues to captivate tea enthusiasts.
