2014 Fu Brick Tea Hunan Hei Cha with Golden Flowers 100g

100 grams in sealed kraft paper bag.

What is Heicha (黑茶)?  Literally "Black Tea" it is made from fully oxidized leaves and wet piled like Shou Pu Erh.  It is pleasantly sweeter than most teas not withstanding its less-than-elegant appearance.  This batch comes from Anhua county in Hunan.  

A distinguishing characteristic of this tea is the presence of Jinhua jun* (金花菌) or "Golden Flower Spores", a natural probiotic fungal bacteria considered good for your health.  If you like Pu Erh, you should try this tea!
