How the tea tastes

Leizu´s Golden Silk

Yellow tea is a rare treasure from China, with only a few skilled tea masters knowing how to make it through a labor-intensive process. Cherished for its smooth flavor, this yellow tea offers a subtle, mild, and spicy sweetness.

How to create
the perfect cup of tea

The preparation

Prepare your cup of tea carefully with water that is not boiling hot, as the low temperatures bring out the delicate aromas beautifully. In the traditional Chinese Gongfu Cha method, tea is brewed in a Gaiwan. After a short steep, it's poured into a serving pot. This process can be repeated for several infusions.

The journey of our tea
into your cup

The processing

Yellow tea production likely started as an effort to improve green tea. The processing is a guarded secret known only to a few tea masters. After the leaves are pan-fired, they're wrapped in cloths to encourage mild, controlled oxidation.

Yunnan, China

The origin of the tea

Tea has been cultivated in China's Yunnan province for thousands of years. In this subtropical climate, ancient tea trees grow on misty hills. Today, Yunnan is famous for its black teas and traditional Pu-erhs. Known as the origin of tea, it's often referred to as the "birthplace of tea."
