Grade Laoshan Black Tea from Shandong","description":"\u003cp\u003eLaoshan village is near Qingdao in the province of Shandong at an altitude of just 300 meters. Laoshan village is also near a sacred mountain, and not far from the ocean. Tea has been grown in the Laoshan area for many generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Laoshan teas are grown by the Liang family, who have a small family operation growing Laoshan tea and doing all the processing of the tea themselves as well. You will notice that the tea is grown under the cover of a greenhouse which is fully covered in the winter to protect from frost and also in the earliest part of spring as well just as the leaves are starting to sprout. In the middle and later part of the first flush growth stage the coverings are removed and the tea bushes grow in full view of the sun until plucking begins in the first week of April (early May for Black teas).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaoshan black tea is small and tippy, it lacks white pekoe style hairs that give black teas their gold color.  Instead Lao Shan black is grown from Long Jing #43 and the dry leaf is small, spindly and has a brown-black shiny look to it.  The brewed leaf gradually unfolds and reveals it’s brown color.  The brewed leaves have a vertical (parallel to the stem) striations as a result of the rolling they undergo.  The tea soup is tending more towards gold in color with much less red than a typical black tea.  The taste of Laoshan black tea is amazingly sweet with very obvious chocolate notes and the slightest hint of osmanthus.  People often question whether sugar was added to the tea somehow, but it’s just naturally sweet and thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaoshan Black is harvested from during April-May, and again in Autumn.  The tea is picked, wilted briefly, fried (kill green), rolled and then allowed to wilt under the sun in cloth bags for 2 to 3 days (depending on ambient temperatures).  After sun wilting is complete the tea is roasted in a kind of hot air tumbler (滚桶 ).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Imperial Grade Laoshan Black is the highest grade black tea from Laoshan normally available and is picked and processed from the finest tippy material picked during the first half of May. The taste is sweet and voluminous with notes of cane sugar, chocolate and baked yams. The Classic Laoshan Black we offer is also excellent with a more robust taste and a little more of the dark chocolate bite to it. I recommend getting a little of each grade to start and then decide for yourself which you like best!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe feel confident you will enjoy family-sourced Laoshan teas and invite you to try them all!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArea:  Laoshan village near Qingdao in Shandong\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTime of harvest:  Mid-April into Early May\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yunnansourcing.com\/pages\/laoshan-village-shandong-liang-family-tea-plantation-pictures\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eClick here to see pictures of the Liang family tea plantation and learn more about them!\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yunnan Sourcing Tea Shop","offers":[{"title":"25 grams 红茶 \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46478338326727,"sku":null,"price":5.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25 grams 红茶 \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45077066711239,"sku":"","price":5.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 grams 红茶 \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46478338359495,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 grams 红茶 \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45077066744007,"sku":"","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 grams 红茶 \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46478338392263,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 grams 红茶 \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45077066776775,"sku":"","price":18.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 grams 红茶 \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46478338425031,"sku":null,"price":41.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 grams 红茶 \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45077066809543,"sku":"","price":41.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 grams 红茶 \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46478338457799,"sku":null,"price":77.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 grams 红茶 \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45077066842311,"sku":"","price":77.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kilogram 红茶 \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46478338490567,"sku":null,"price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kilogram 红茶 \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45077066875079,"sku":"","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/9817\/products\/1_59bcf1f5-ac19-42fd-aef5-bb6a1d115364.jpg?v=1588697316"},{"product_id":"sweet-potato-zheng-shan-xiao-zhong-black-tea","title":"Sweet Potato Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong Black Tea","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe grower of this Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong (正山小种) calls this \"Sweet Potato\" (红薯) Xiao Zhong.

Purple Bud has long been known as a scattered deviation that grows extensively among different kinds of tea plants. It is most common in summer tea. High anthocyanin content provides its purple color. It also results in a bitter flavor, which has given the purple buds a reputation as unsuitable for tea.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHowever, in the late 70's and early 80's Wuyi Stone Tea (Yan Cha) producers discovered that Stone Tea variants could be cultivated and tamed, resulting in a fine tea variety with high yield and stress resistance. This also reduced much of the tea's bitterness. Consequently, the Fujian Tea Research Society produced a new asexual tea variety through natural hybridization of Da Hong Pao tea: Purple Bud Stone Tea. In technical terms, it is a medium leaf, late budding, shrub tea variety. It features dark yellow-green tender tips, purple buds, purplish-red leaf bases, short space between sections, little fuzz, soft leaves, and dense bud tips. In addition, it grows with high yield, and high stress resistance. Spring buds occur in mid to late March and one-bud-three-leaf growth occurs in mid to late April. The quality of this tea is excellent when processed as an Oolong. This variety represents a successful example of utilizing and improving on precious existing tea tree resources and is suitable for widespread cultivation in Oolong tea growing areas. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBuilding on this breeding experience with Oolong teas, research was begun into the cultivation of variants of Yunnan large-leaf teas. In 1985, technical staff from the Yunnan Tea Research Institute discovered a tea tree with purple buds, leaves, and stalk among the institutes' plantation of over 600,000 trees. They processed its fresh leaves to produce a dark green roasted tea. The dried tea had a purple color and maintained this color in its brewed tea liquor. It also possessed a pure fragrance and a strong, intense flavor. Because of the tea's purple buds, leaves, and stems and the fact that it maintained this purple color after processing, they named the tea \"Purple Beauty.\" Through research and further cultivation, this variant has given rise to current Purple Beauty tea trees.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePurple Beauty tea trees are considered a small arbor\/shrub, big leaf, medium bud variety.

It can be grown in the same manner as other Yunnan large-leaf teas. Tea tree production volume is moderate. Purple Beauty has an elevated aroma, smooth and light mouth feel (\u003cem\u003ekou gan\u003c\/em\u003e), but with a  noticeable bitterness. Numerous plantations began cuttage cultivation of Purple Beauty trees.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTraditional Purple Bud refers to a bud deviation in large-leaf arbor trees due to seasonal and growing conditions. Only a few trees in a tea forest produce purple buds, and even ancient trees produce limited purple buds. Purple Beauty, on the other hand, is a cuttage plantation tree grown with high yield and tight planting. Tea variants are preselected with light and temperature added to encourage trees throughout the plantation to develop a purple color from the buds to the leaves and stalks. Traditional Purple Bud leaf blades are thick and dark green. The prominent veins in the leaves are similar to those of wild tea.  Traditional purple bud arbor tea brews a golden-yellow tea liquor with a heavy mouth feel and full flavor, while purple beauty has thin tea liquor, brownish-green color, and is relatively bitter. The two share high levels of anthocyanin.  The roasted tea is somewhat bitter and astringent, and the brewed liquor is a brownish green or indigo blue color, the sun-dried version shares some character with Pu-erh and has balanced astringency \/ bitter character.  Sun-dried Purple beauty is suitable for compression and aging as well!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHarvest in Jingmai area, Lancang county of Simao (Yunnan Province)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eApril Picking and processing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVarietal: Zi Juan 紫娟\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElevation: 1450-1500 meters\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yunnan Sourcing Tea Shop","offers":[{"title":"50 grams \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46549013725383,"sku":null,"price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45121341161671,"sku":"","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 grams \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46549013758151,"sku":null,"price":16.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45121341194439,"sku":"","price":16.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 grams \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46549013790919,"sku":null,"price":36.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45121341227207,"sku":"","price":36.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 grams \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46549013823687,"sku":null,"price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45121341259975,"sku":"","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kilogram \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46549013856455,"sku":null,"price":126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kilogram \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45121341292743,"sku":"","price":126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/9817\/products\/thumb_94611617-dced-4670-88bd-7b5dc9cf19e1.jpg?v=1554252836"},{"product_id":"classic-robust-jin-jun-mei-black-tea-of-fujian","title":"Classic Robust Jin Jun Mei Black Tea of Fujian","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a classic styled Jin Jun Mei that was processed to remove the fine hairs (脱毛) giving it a more robust dark chocolate character.  Although, the tea overall is quite robust you can change the brewing parameters to bring out more chocolate character, or brew with cooler water and get a bit more sweetness with dried fruit character.  This is a robust straight-forward tea to enjoy as an everyday drinking Jin Jun Mei.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApril Harvest\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWu Yi Shan area of Fujian\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yunnan Sourcing Tea Shop","offers":[{"title":"50 Grams \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46560798474439,"sku":null,"price":7.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 Grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45146669187271,"sku":"","price":7.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 Grams \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46560798507207,"sku":null,"price":13.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 Grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45146669220039,"sku":"","price":13.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 Grams \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46560798539975,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 Grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45146669252807,"sku":"","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 Grams \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46560798572743,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 Grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45146669285575,"sku":"","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Kilogram \/ Spring 2026","offer_id":46560798605511,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Kilogram \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45146669318343,"sku":"","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/9817\/products\/DSC_3561.JPG?v=1559086189"},{"product_id":"laoshan-village-joyous-spring-tea-sampler","title":"Laoshan Village \"Joyous Spring\" Tea Sampler","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTake a flight to Laoshan Village near Qingdao in the province of Shandong.

generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Laoshan teas are grown by the Liang family, who have a small family operation growing Laoshan tea and doing all the processing of the tea themselves as well.  You will notice that the tea is grown undercover of greenhouse which are fully covered in the winter to protect from frost and also in the earliest part of spring as well just as the leaves are starting to sprout.  In the middle and later part of the first flush growth stage the coverings are removed and the tea bushes grow in full view of the sun until plucking begins in the first week of April (early May for Black teas).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaoshan black tea is small and tippy, it lacks white pekoe style hairs that give black teas their gold color.  Instead Lao Shan black is grown from Long Jing #43 and the dry leaf is small, spindly and has a brown-black shiny look to it.  The brewed leaf gradually unfolds and reveals it’s brown color.  The brewed leaves have a vertical (parallel to the stem) striations as a result of the rolling they undergo.  The tea soup is tending more towards gold in color with much less red than a typical black tea.  The taste of Laoshan black tea is amazingly sweet with very obvious chocolate notes and the slightest hint of osmanthus.  People often question whether sugar was added to the tea somehow, but it’s just naturally sweet and thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaoshan Black is harvested from during April-May, and again in Autumn.  The tea is picked, wilted briefly, fried (kill green), rolled and then allowed to wilt under the sun in cloth bags for 2 to 3 days (depending on ambient temperatures).  After sun wilting is complete the tea is roasted in a kind of hot air tumbler (滚桶 ).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Imperial Grade Laoshan Black is the highest grade black tea from Laoshan normally available and is picked and processed from the finesttippy material picked during the first half of May.  The taste is sweet and voluminous with notes of cane sugar, chocolate and baked yams.  The Classic Laoshan Black we offer is also excellent with a more robust taste and a little more of the dark chocolate bite to it.  I recommend getting a little of each grade to start and then decide for yourself which you like best!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe feel confident you will enjoy family-sourced Laoshan teas and

Purple Beauty, on the other hand, is the result of human cultivation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe tea community first began to notice the Purple Bud variant at Wuyi Shan. Purple Bud has long been known as a scattered deviation that grows extensively among different kinds of tea plants. It is most common in summer tea. High anthocyanin content provides its purple color. It also results in a bitter flavor, which has given the purple buds a reputation as unsuitable for tea.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHowever, in the late 70's and early 80's Wuyi Stone Tea (Yan Cha) producers discovered that Stone Tea variants could be cultivated and tamed, resulting in a fine tea variety with high yield and stress resistance. This also reduced much of the tea's bitterness. Consequently, the Fujian Tea Research Society produced a new asexual tea variety through natural hybridization of Da Hong Pao tea: Purple Bud Stone Tea. In technical terms, it is a medium leaf, late budding, shrub tea variety. It features dark yellow-green tender tips, purple buds, purplish-red leaf bases, short space between sections, little fuzz, soft leaves, and dense bud tips. In addition, it grows with high yield, and high stress resistance. Spring buds occur in mid to late March and one-bud-three-leaf growth occurs in mid to late April. The quality of this tea is excellent when processed as an Oolong. This variety represents a successful example of utilizing and improving on precious existing tea tree resources and is suitable for widespread cultivation in Oolong tea growing areas. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBuilding on this breeding experience with Oolong teas, research was begun into the cultivation of variants of Yunnan large-leaf teas. In 1985, technical staff from the Yunnan Tea Research Institute discovered a tea tree with purple buds, leaves, and stalk among the institutes' plantation of over 600,000 trees. They processed its fresh leaves to produce a dark green roasted tea. The dried tea had a purple color and maintained this color in its brewed tea liquor. It also possessed a pure fragrance and a strong, intense flavor. Because of the tea's purple buds, leaves, and stems and the fact that it maintained this purple color after processing, they named the tea \"Purple Beauty.\" Through research and further cultivation, this variant has given rise to current Purple Beauty tea trees.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePurple Beauty tea trees are considered a small arbor\/shrub, big leaf, medium bud variety. The tea trees have a half-open appearance with high branches and moderate branch density. Leaves grow with an upward slant.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpring buds occur in late February and full one-bud-three-leaf growth occurs between late March and early April.  Bud growth is strong with moderate density. The buds are a purple color and are relatively plump, fuzzy, and tender.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis tea is well-suited to planting in large-leaf tea growing areas due to its high capacity for cuttage reproduction and resistance to cold, drought, and disease. It can be grown in the same manner as other Yunnan large-leaf teas. Tea tree production volume is moderate. Purple Beauty has an elevated aroma, smooth and light mouth feel (\u003cem\u003ekou gan\u003c\/em\u003e), but with a  noticeable bitterness. Numerous plantations began cuttage cultivation of Purple Beauty trees.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTraditional Purple Bud refers to a bud deviation in large-leaf arbor trees due to seasonal and growing conditions. Only a few trees in a tea forest produce purple buds, and even ancient trees produce limited purple buds. Purple Beauty, on the other hand, is a cuttage plantation tree grown with high yield and tight planting. Tea variants are preselected with light and temperature added to encourage trees throughout the plantation to develop a purple color from the buds to the leaves and stalks. Traditional Purple Bud leaf blades are thick and dark green. The prominent veins in the leaves are similar to those of wild tea.  Traditional purple bud arbor tea brews a golden-yellow tea liquor with a heavy mouth feel and full flavor, while purple beauty has thin tea liquor, brownish-green color, and is relatively bitter. The two share high levels of anthocyanin.  The roasted tea is somewhat bitter and astringent, and the brewed liquor is a brownish green or indigo blue color, the sun-dried version shares some character with Pu-erh and has balanced astringency \/ bitter character.  Sun-dried Purple beauty is suitable for compression and aging as well!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHarvested in Mangshi County of Dehong\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eApril Picking and processing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVarietal: Zi Juan 紫娟\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElevation: 1300-1400 meters\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yunnan Sourcing Tea Shop","offers":[{"title":"50 grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45137372971207,"sku":null,"price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45137373429959,"sku":null,"price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45137373757639,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 grams \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45137373954247,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kilogram \/ Spring 2025","offer_id":45137374118087,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/9817\/files\/1_ba0eb124-9db1-4c94-9893-5511895bd128.jpg?v=1717284323"},{"product_id":"mei-zhan-varietal-black-tea-from-tong-mu-village","title":"Mei Zhan Varietal Black Tea from Tong Mu Village","description":"\u003cp\u003eMei Zhan is a varietal is originally from Anxi area of Fujian, and has been grown in Wuyi for more than 80 years.
