Ancient tree Tea has become a sought-after item among many tea enthusiasts for two main reasons: first, due to its rarity and scarcity; second, because these ancient trees have had ample time to develop extensive root systems, allowing them to absorb more abundant intrinsic nutrients from the soil, delivering an unparalleled and unique taste experience.

How to Distinguish Ancient Tree Tea?

When we open the tea cake, we can already discern some characteristics. Good tea is made from a single batch of leaves, also known as “pure material,” which refers to tea leaves sourced from the same mountain and harvested during the same season. Pure material tea cakes have neat and consistent strands, are neither too loose nor too tightly compressed, have a uniform composition inside and out, do not contain excessive amounts of broken fragments, and have a pure aroma without any off smells. Tea cakes made from mixed batches cannot compare in quality to those made from pure material.

Tea is meant to be savored. Let's Brew a pot. The tea liquor should be a golden yellow color, clear and bright. As the tea ages, the color of the tea liquor will change. Good tea leaves should be thick and plump, with clear veins, uniformly consistent, brightly colored, well spread out, and without any burnt or charred edges.

The taste speaks for itself. Good tea has a strong presence, good aftertaste, strong salivation-inducing properties, sufficient depth, a unique aroma, and remains stable even after 8-12 infusions. A fine tea can awaken the palate of seasoned tea drinkers, reminding them of the taste of their first good Cup of tea. Although this wonderful feeling may be difficult to describe in words, the body naturally remembers it.
