In ancient times, yellow tea was called "imperial tea" because only the Chinese ruler and his closest associates could enjoy it. If you're curious about why it was considered such a luxury, we invite you to read on.
Yellow tea's uniqueness stems primarily from the extreme precision with which it is harvested, which influences its subsequent quality. Furthermore, this unique variety is grown only in China, and in very small quantities. This makes yellow tea difficult to obtain and little known in Europe. This makes it sought after by connoisseurs worldwide, sometimes fetching very high prices.
We invite everyone who wants to experience the power of the yellow variety to our salons. You'll find two exceptional blends: Yellon Wang and Yellow Jasmine. The former is a variety from China's Hunan Province. It consists of whole, long leaves, which give it a noble, golden infusion. Its flavor is exceptionally subtle, while its aroma reveals a light, floral note. The latter, on the other hand, stands out for its exceptionally delicate taste – sweetness tempered by a subtle hint of bitterness, and an intense aroma owed to aging with fresh jasmine flowers. The infusion has a straw-yellow color.
Yellow tea is steeped in water at 80-85°C (186-195°F) and steeped for approximately 2-3 minutes. The resulting infusion is pale yellow in color and characterized by a fresh, pleasant taste and delicate aroma. Yellow tea also has significant healing properties. Drinking it restores vitality, supports the digestive system, and has cleansing properties.
