Frequently asked questions

How many times can I steep Guangdong Big Leaf Yellow (Greenish Yellow) Tea? ›

You can comfortably enjoy 5 to 7 smooth infusions. The large, robust leaves release their mellow, fruity flavors gradually and steadily.

What does Guangdong Big Leaf Yellow (Greenish Yellow) Tea taste like for beginners? ›

It perfectly bridges the gap between green tea and light oolong. Beginners will find it incredibly easy to drink, offering a mellow, soft liquor with hints of sweet stone fruit, a mild floral aroma, and a remarkably clean finish with no harshness.

What is the best teaware to brew Guangdong Big Leaf Yellow (Greenish Yellow) Tea? ›

A standard porcelain Gaiwan or a glass teapot works wonderfully to brew this loose leaf tea. The spacious teaware allows the large, greenish-yellow leaves to expand fully and evenly.

Does Guangdong Big Leaf Yellow (Greenish Yellow) Tea come directly from its place of origin? ›

Yes, it does. This unique, rare style of yellow tea is sourced directly from authentic, specialized tea gardens in Guangdong Province, China.

Why is it called "Greenish Yellow" Tea? ›

Unlike other yellow teas, "Da Ye Qing" undergoes a unique process where the fresh leaves are briefly wilted before being pan-fried and smothered. This retains a greenish-yellow appearance while developing a much softer, more oxidized flavor profile than standard green teas.

Our tea is naturally grown, hand-picked, and sourced from authentic tea gardens

Our teas are carefully picked from their authentic places of origin, then handcrafted using traditional methods passed down through generations. Every leaf reflects the purity of the land it comes from, ensuring you enjoy a truly genuine and honest cup of tea.
