Join the Tea Community

Our customers and tea friends often gather on The Tea Table, a tea community on Discord originally created by tea enthusiast Liquid Proust in 2020. 

Inside the server, members discuss tea, share tasting notes, and help each other learn more about Chinese tea. 

Some of our customers have also started a small OrientaLeaf corner there to chat about the teas they’re drinking. If you'd like to meet other tea drinkers and join the conversation, you're warmly welcome to join.

OrientaLeaf Wins at 2025 World Tea Championship: Superior Award for Golden Flower Fu Brick Tea

On this page

    We are thrilled to announce that OrientaLeaf has been honored with a Superior Award at the 2025 World Tea Championship, one of the most prestigious international tea competitions. Our Golden Flower Fuzhuan-Shou (Fu Brick Tea) was recognized as a Joint Winner in the Pu-erh Tea category, awarded for both Best Leaf Profile and Best Cup Character.

    About the Award

    The World Tea Championship is known for its rigorous standards and international panel of expert judges. Teas are evaluated blindly based on aroma, taste, appearance, and overall character. To receive a Superior Award means that a tea stands out not only in technical excellence but also in drinkability and character.

    Our Fu Brick Tea was selected among many outstanding entries from around the world, making this recognition especially meaningful.

    What Makes Our Golden Flower Fu Brick Tea Special?

    Our award-winning Fuzhuan-Shou is a type of dark tea fermented with Eurotium cristatum, commonly known as "Golden Flowers." This beneficial fungus creates a tea that is mellow, smooth, and sweet, with a warming, digestive-friendly quality. The version we submitted combines shou-style fermentation with careful aging and small-batch craftsmanship.

    Produced in Jingyang County at the northern edge of the Qinling Mountains, this tea represents a tradition with centuries of history, reimagined for modern palates.

    Key Features:

    • Clean, rich flavor with natural sweetness
    • Smooth body with no bitterness
    • Beautiful golden flower bloom inside the brick
    • Aged and balanced character, easy to enjoy daily
    • Excellent for digestion and daily wellness
