Yellow tea is a special kind of tea that is known only in China and is its national treasure. Due to the special cultivars, the quality of the tea leaves, and the low level of oxidation, this type of tea is rich in vitamins and microelements and has exquisite organoleptic properties.
According to the degree of oxidation, yellow tea is similar to white tea. As a result of wrap-yellowing, the tea leaves lose their herbaceousness and astringency which is inherent in green tea, while also retaining all the beneficial properties. It is believed that yellow tea reduces the risk of heart disease, cleans the circulatory system, strengthens blood vessels, lowers blood pressure, has antiviral and antibacterial properties, and relieves spasms, headaches and nervous tension.

ROSE SHAN TEA from ANCIENT TREES OF HÀ GIÀNG
ORIGIN
Vietnam is known as one of the oldest tea regions in the world, with a vast area of ancient tea trees spreading from northeast to northwest. Hà Giang province is located in the northeast part of Vietnam on the border with Yunnan province, China. This region is famous for its wild ancient trees grown here for hundreds and even thousands of years. Unique climate, high altitude, rich soil and high level of humidity create an excellent environment for tea trees to grow, what give this tea a particularly special character and taste. This is a homeland of different minorities like Vietnamese, H'Mông, Tay, Kinh, Nung, Dao and others, who traditionally use tea leaves as a medicine and take care about the tea trees.
Made from high-quality young spring buds harvested from 350-500 years old tea trees, this tea is unique due to its rareness. Harvested by the H'Mong minority high in the mountains at an altitude 1200+ meters and processed by a local tea master.
ORGANOLEPTICS
This tea is special and hard to describe. The dry tea leaves have a gentle aroma with notes of chocolate, nuts, and bakery. After rinsing, the fragrance develops into creamy, milky, and cacao tones. The taste is light, sweet, and creamy, with chocolate notes and fruity aftertaste. The oily texture and sweet light taste make this tea very intriguing.
