Product Overview
Also known as Fuzhuan Cha or Fucha, this earthy, robust aged tea is treated with a special type of mushroom spore (eurotium cristatum) and then hand-pressed into flaky layered bricks. As the tea ages, the spores grow into tiny golden mushrooms that are said to look like flowers all over the tea leaves! This prized tea possesses bold, full body and creamy sweet golden mushroom flavor, which balance each other out in a graceful and unique way.
This dark tea brick from Anhua County (famous for Dark Tea production) steeps up a light golden color, with a hint of red. The liquor is sweet, mild and smooth with a hint of newly-mown hay.
