White Tea | Yellow Tea | Green Tea | Oolong Tea | Black Tea | Puerh Tea | Herbal Tea | Continue Shopping Yellow teas are so called because of the yellow-orange tint that the leaves impart to the water during the steeping process. They are unoxidized, and created in a very different manner from most teas – a process which involves subjecting the leaves to a low heat for several days to create the unique flavor they possess. The result is a cup with a fresh fragrance and a clean, astringent taste. Yellow tea lies in between white tea and green tea on the tea spectrum, although we believe that its characteristics will remind you more of the White than the Green. In any case, yellow teas are the single rarest variety of tea on earth, and an exceptional treat for the avid tea enthusiast. |
