Guangxi Aged Liu Pao is an incredible tea brand new to the market. Also known as Guangxi Lao Pao, this type of tea (also called post fermented tea) is produced in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region of China. Its name originates from Liu Pao Town where it is grown and processed.
The unique fermentation and aging process of Guangxi Aged Liu Pao tea give it a distinct flavour and aroma; a sister tea to a traditional Pu’erh. After harvesting and processing the tea leaves undergo a fermentation process similar to other dark teas like Pu’erh. However Guangxi Aged Liu Pao has its regional characteristics that set it apart from Pu’erh.
Over time the aging of Liu Pao tea enhances its flavour, complexity. To facilitate airflow and aging it is often stored in bamboo baskets or other porous containers – this amazing example has been aged for 7 years in French Oak wooden chests imparting a flavour of forests, orchards and fields with an incomparable spectrum of flavours.
