Liubao Tea - Guangxi's Famous Dark Tea

Liubao Tea (六堡茶) is one of China's most famous dark teas, originating from Liubao Town in Wuzhou City, Guangxi Province. With a history spanning over 1,500 years, Liubao tea was historically exported to Southeast Asia and became known as the "tea of overseas Chinese." The tea is celebrated for its distinctive aged character, smooth mouthfeel, and digestive benefits. Liubao tea undergoes post-fermentation and aging, developing complex flavors over time.
