ABOUT YELLOW TEA
ABOUT
Yellow tea is a rare and delicate tea category known for its smooth, mellow flavor and subtle sweetness. Like green tea, yellow tea undergoes minimal oxidation but includes a unique “wrapping-yellowing” process that softens the leaves and reduces grassy notes. Historically, yellow tea was highly prized in China’s imperial courts and appreciated for its refined taste and gentle properties. Yellow tea is primarily produced in China, with famous varieties originating from provinces such as Anhui, Hunan, and Jiangxi. The production season aligns with early spring when young buds and tender leaves are harvested. These regions provide the cool, humid climates and nutrient-rich soils essential for producing high-quality yellow tea.
