Schwarzer/Roter Tee

Yiwu Luoshuidong Gushu Hongcha

Yiwu Luoshuidong, China | 2022

 

Perfect "mariage" between Premium Gushu Sheng and Hong Cha. Teamaster Oh's premium version of Yiwu Gushu Hongcha. Amazingly sweet and flavorful. Super long lasting fragrance in your mouth even after multiple infusion...up to 20?! You can brew this one all day long. You just need to try out, as it is so hard to describe the depth of its complex tasting profile. One customer recently complained that I was hiding this tea from him. Truth to be told, yes, there are certain teas I do not advertise so much unless asked, cause some teas are maybe just too fancy or  toooooo awesome to share :)

Yiwu Gushu Hong Cha 易武 古樹 紅茶

Yunnan Yiwu, China | 2018

The definition of red tea (or black tea in the west) is changing in Asia. Traditionally it was supposed to be at least 80 % oxidized, but now the bar is getting lower and lower as long as it is made with red tea recipes. There are more and more new and better kinds of red teas in the market as it is getting more popular in the east. This special kind of tea is my tea master's own invention and design, oxidized only 50 % , sun-dried, never touched by any heat, extra midly rolled and pressed into a 10 kg pillar in 2018 and well storaged until the beginning of this year.  It was made with blended Gushu leaves from two famous Yiwu regions, Mahei (麻黑) und Mannai (曼乃). So far every pillar it turns out every pillar tastes slightly differently depending on the location in the storage and they are all still developing interesting flavours as time goes by. It even developed some Jinhua (金花) here and there just like well aged Hei Cha such as Fu Cha. Due to the extra mild rolling, the first three infusions are mild but then you just can't stop brewing enough afterwards.

Soseul Hong Cha

Hadong, Süd-korea | 2017

This is, again, a very rare batch of black tea from South Korea. As my teamaster is retiring, this will be the last black tea from South Korea I could introduce with confidence. Coming from a micro organic tea farm high up in the mountain, harvested and processed with all human hands. It was originally made in 2017 and carefully reroasted in 2021. A perfect example of how much skillful techniques of roasting can improve an already amazing tea.

Wild Gushu Yunxian Hong Cha

Yunnan Lincang, China | 2020

This is an ancient tree black tea with leaves from 800–1,000 year old trees growing in the mountains of Yunxian at a 2,050–2,300 meter altitude. Yunxian is an area known for its gushu trees (ancient trees not planted by human hands). Usually leaves from such trees are made into sheng puerh, but this is a rare batch of hongcha (literally red tea, but called black tea in the west). This smells amazing with caramelized fruitiness lingering in the nostrils and a fresh feeling on the tongue. It’s almost like a fine dancong in appearance and fragrance but the liquor carries an exquisitely sweet and complex flavor while never becoming bitter. This is a tea to be drunk over the whole day through up to two liters of water. Warm, sweet, clean, refreshing: a perfect brew for fall. Due to their nature, gushu teas are only produced in limited quantities each year and hongcha gushus are even rarer, and so, quantities are limited!
