This one was made by time. The 2015 Liu Bao Mini Gold Brick from Cha Yuan Ji is a traditionally fermented, dry-warehouse aged Liu Bao from the core production zone of Wuzhou, Guangxi — over ten years in the making, pressed into a compact mini brick, sealed in individual gold foil, and ready to deliver everything that great aged Liu Bao promises: deep woody aged fragrance, warm medicinal depth, and a slow, lasting sweetness that only a decade of patient aging can produce. This is old Liu Bao in its most traditional, most authentic expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Classic Aged Liu Bao Character\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dry fragrance is immediately distinctive and unmistakably traditional: settled woody aged notes, a warm medicinal depth that speaks of years of transformation, and a quiet grain sweetness underneath. This is the flavor profile that defines great old Liu Bao — rich, complex, and deeply comforting. Not light, not fruity. Thick, aged, and full of history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCraftsmanship \u0026amp; Appearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach mini brick is compact and precisely pressed — the leaves tightly bound, glossy, and threaded with visible golden tips. Individual gold foil packaging keeps each brick fresh, moisture-protected, and perfectly portioned for a single session — elegant, practical, and ready to go wherever you go.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIn the Cup\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe liquor is a deep, luminous ruby-red — rich and transparent, with a viscosity that is visible as it pours. On the palate, it is smooth and enveloping: mellow, full-bodied, and completely free of bitterness or astringency. The aged character is present but refined — woody depth and a warm medicinal note that speaks of years of dry-warehouse storage, clean and complex without any mustiness. The sweetness is slow and internal, building gently and staying long after the cup is empty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Long Steep Reward\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrew it long — in a thermos or slow-simmered — and the 2015 Mini Gold Brick reveals another dimension: a thick, glutinous red bean soup sweetness that emerges from the depth of the aged leaves, coating the mouth in warmth and satisfaction. This is a tea that gives more the longer you give it time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePerfect for Office \u0026amp; Travel\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach brick is individually gold foil sealed — compact, moisture-proof, and precisely portioned at 5g. Toss one in your bag, your desk drawer, or your travel kit. Drop it in a thermos with boiling water before you leave, and by the time you arrive, a rich, warming aged Liu Bao is waiting for you. No measuring, no fuss. Just great tea, anywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThree Ways to Brew\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGaiwan\u003c\/strong\u003e — Multiple short steeps to explore the layered aged character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThermos \/ Insulated Flask\u003c\/strong\u003e — Long steep for the full red bean soup depth and body; ideal for office and travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSimmered\u003c\/strong\u003e — Boil gently for a rich, concentrated aged brew\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Brick Is Special\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2015 Vintage\u003c\/strong\u003e — 10+ years of fermentation and dry-warehouse aging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraditional Aged Liu Bao Flavor\u003c\/strong\u003e — Thick woody aged fragrance and warm medicinal depth; the authentic old Liu Bao character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore Wuzhou Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e — Premium Guangxi Liu Bao raw material from the heartland of production\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDry-Warehouse Aged\u003c\/strong\u003e — Long-term clean storage; zero mustiness or off-notes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGolden Tips Visible\u003c\/strong\u003e — A mark of quality raw material in the pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndividual Gold Foil — Office \u0026amp; Travel Ready\u003c\/strong\u003e — Compact, moisture-proof, perfectly portioned; drop one in a thermos and go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVersatile Brewing\u003c\/strong\u003e — Gaiwan, thermos, or simmered; excellent brew resistance throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage: 2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Wuzhou, Guangxi — Core Liu Bao Production Zone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcessing: Traditional wet-pile fermentation, dry-warehouse aged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm: Compressed mini brick, individually gold foil sealed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: Approx. 5g per brick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"QIFU TEAHOUSE","offers":[{"title":"50g","offer_id":44606270930995,"sku":null,"price":25.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100g","offer_id":44606268702771,"sku":null,"price":29.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g","offer_id":44606268735539,"sku":null,"price":59.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g","offer_id":44606268768307,"sku":null,"price":89.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/9976\/0691\/files\/1_6a63b5a6-a22f-4dd2-adf8-f13cc02b24dd.jpg?v=1785401860","url":"https:\/\/www.qifutea.com\/products\/cha-yuan-ji-liu-bao-mini-gold-brick-2015","provider":"QIFU TEAHOUSE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
