From TheTea

This tea is made by expert Liu Bao master using special grade leaves from true Wuzhou, Guangxi old trees plantation.

The fermentation follows the traditional pile fermentation process (similar to shu pu-erh).
Made in small batches (15kg baskets) and carefully controlled, this tea don’t have obvious fermentation or vegetal taste. Wodui aroma is almost gone (only dry leaves have gentle smell of it) thanks to some (from 2019) Malaysian storage and well done production.
Tea is sweet, velvety and elegant. Tasting this Liu Bao you will find notes of caramel, wood, incenses and pleasant nutty nuances with hints of dark honey.
Aftertaste is clean and sweet.
On the photos of the liquor you can see the tea after 3rd and 6th infusions.

This is a relatively sweet liu bao with a thick, creamy, and coating texture. The liquor is clear and of a beautiful burgundy colour.

Dry leaf aroma has notes of wood, cherries and milk. After rinse I get a wild mixture of mushrooms, baked bread, caves and wet rocks, roasted walnuts, sumac, and a hint of leather.

The taste is mineral, nutty and earthy with a sweet bite to it. There are flavours of coriander seeds, molasses, butter on top of the earthy bittersweet ones.
