Fully Fermented Tea

Our fully fermented teas showcase the rich diversity of Chinese tea craftsmanship. These teas undergo complete oxidation, resulting in bold, complex flavors that unfold immediately upon brewing.
From the mineral-rich Ziyang Hong Cha of Shaanxi, known for its unique selenium content, to the delicate floral notes of Jasmine Red Tea and the robust maltiness of Dian Hong from Yunnan – each tea in this collection offers a distinct taste experience.
The beauty of fully fermented teas lies in their immediate flavor release. Even the dry leaves carry intense aromas, and once brewed, they reveal layers of taste that evolve with changing water temperatures. During production, the leaves are rolled and twisted, breaking down cell walls to release internal juices. This process, followed by full oxidation, creates the deep, nuanced flavors characteristic of these teas.
We've carefully selected these teas based on our personal preferences – these are the same teas we enjoy daily. Our aim is to offer you authentic, well-crafted teas that speak for themselves, without need for exaggeration.
These teas are perfect for those who appreciate bold flavors and are looking for a satisfying daily brew. They're excellent for morning routines or as an afternoon pick-me-up. Their full-bodied nature makes them ideal companions for quiet moments of reflection or for sharing with friends.
For brewing, we recommend using water just off the boil and steeping for 3-5 minutes. However, we encourage you to experiment and find your preferred method. Each tea responds differently to brewing parameters, offering a journey of discovery with every cup.
Our commitment is to bring you teas we genuinely love and drink ourselves. We believe in the inherent quality of these leaves and their ability to provide a rewarding tea experience, cup after cup.
