Some people are looking for caffeine-free green tea. While we currently don’t have any caffeine-free green tea, we’ve found some caffeine-free herbal teas that are made using green tea processing methods, so they share some similar flavor characteristics. These herbal teas have all been used in traditional Chinese medicine. They include the naturally sweet Sweet Tea Tree (Cyclocarya Paliurus), Rock Tea (Shi Ya Cha), which is rich in flavonoids, and Zhangjiajie Mei Tea, known for its high flavonoid content.

 Jin Qian Liu：Sweet Tea Tree (Cyclocarya Paliurus)
Sweet Tea Tree (Cyclocarya Paliurus) is a deciduous tree that grows in southern China. Its leaves are used to make tea, which is popular for its natural sweetness and various health benefits. In traditional Chinese medicine, Sweet Tea Tree tea is used to support healthy blood sugar levels and is considered a natural way to help manage diabetes and promote heart health.

Wild Cliff Tea (Shi Ya Cha)
Rock Tea (Shi Ya Cha) is a rare tea that grows on the high-altitude cliffs of Guangxi, China. It’s harvested from wild tea trees that grow in the cracks of these rocky cliffs, where the soil is rich in nutrients. Known for its strong aroma and sweet taste, it’s often called “tea of the immortals.” Rock Tea is packed with flavonoids and is praised for its rich flavor, as well as its potential to boost immunity and aid digestion.

 Vine Tea 
 Vine Tea (Ampelopsis grossedentata) is a perennial vine primarily found in Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China. It thrives at elevations of 400-1500 meters, in misty, humid conditions and special quartz sandstone soil. Originally used as a traditional Tujia medicine, Zhangjiajie Mei Tea is rich in natural active flavonoids, with its young stems and leaves containing over 30% flavonoids on average, and the tender buds having as much as 43.78%. This is why it’s called the “King of Flavonoids.”

Introduction:
This 2018 Liubao tea is sourced from high-altitude tea gardens in Guilin, Guangxi, and made from high-grade one-bud-three-leaf material. After five years of aging, the tea has undergone sufficient fermentation and transformation, developing a unique flavor profile with a distinctive betel nut aroma, a bright red liquor, and a smooth, mellow taste with a slightly sweet aftertaste.

Reasons to Recommend:

• Core Production Area: Grown in Liubao Town, Wuzhou City, Guangxi, where the average annual temperature is 21.1°C, annual rainfall is 1503.6 mm, and annual sunshine duration is 1915 hours. The abundant rainfall and vast mountainous terrain create an ideal environment for tea cultivation.
• Unique Aroma: The "betel nut aroma" of Liubao tea originates from a faint "pine smoke fragrance" in newly made tea, which transforms into the distinctive "betel nut aroma" after prolonged aging. This aroma creates a lasting "cooling" sensation in the mouth.
• Rich History: Liubao tea flourished during the Tang and Song dynasties and reached its peak during the Ming and Qing dynasties. During the Jiaqing period of the Qing dynasty, it was recognized as one of China's 24 famous teas for its unique betel nut aroma.
• Dual Benefits: Liubao dark tea holds a special place in traditional Chinese medicine. It is both cooling and warming, said to eliminate excess dampness while providing warmth when needed.

Introduction:
This Anhua Dark Tea is meticulously selected from the autumn harvest of 2021. Plucked from wild tea gardens in Anhua County, Hunan Province, it adheres to the plucking standard of one bud and three leaves. Recognized by the global tea and medical communities as one of the healthiest beverages of the 21st century, this tea exudes a unique pine smoke aroma when brewed, offering a pure, mellow, and sweet taste with a lasting aftertaste.

Reasons to Recommend:

• Special Processing Technique: Anhua Dark Tea undergoes a unique "wet piling" (wo dui) process twice—once during the initial processing of raw tea and again during the final product processing. This process utilizes the temperature and humidity of the tea leaves after fixation, allowing microorganisms in the air to interact with the leaves, resulting in the transformation of the tea's internal compounds.
• Premium Quality: This Anhua Dark Tea (Tianjian) is considered the finest variety available on the market and was historically treasured as a tribute tea for emperors.
• Unique Aroma: A special step in the production of Anhua Dark Tea is the "Seven Star Stove" roasting. During this process, pine wood is burned beneath the stove, and the pine smoke is channeled into the tea leaves, infusing them with a distinctive pine smoke aroma while drying.

Oxidation Level: Wet piling fermentation
Roasting Level: Seven Star Stove pine smoke roasting

Introduction:
This Hubei Dark Tea is meticulously selected from the autumn harvest of 2022. Plucked from high-altitude tea gardens in Zhaoliqiao Town, Hubei Province, it adheres to the plucking standard of one bud and three leaves. This tea is a type of Hubei Dark Tea known as "Mi Zhuan Cha" (Rice Brick Tea), renowned for its unique flavor profile. The tea liquor is rich and robust, with a slight initial bitterness that transforms into a lasting sweet aftertaste. It primarily exudes a floral and honey-like aroma, accompanied by a subtle aged fragrance.

Reasons to Recommend:

• Unique Raw Material: Mi Zhuan Cha is a specialty tea produced in Chibi City, Hubei Province, known as the "Hometown of Chinese Brick Tea." It is a compressed black tea made entirely from tea dust, which gives it the name "Rice Brick Tea."
• Distinct Appearance: The finished Mi Zhuan Cha is visually striking, with sharp edges, a smooth surface adorned with intricate patterns, and a glossy black brick color. When brewed, it produces a deep red liquor with a pure aroma and a rich, mellow taste.
• High-Mountain Tea Gardens: The tea trees grow at high altitudes, where significant daily temperature variations slow their growth. The abundant mist and moisture nourish the tea trees, enriching the leaves with nutrients and resulting in a tea with a robust flavor and strong aroma.

A Rare Expression of Phoenix Dancong

Sourced from Da’an Village, one of the most prestigious Phoenix Dancong growing areas, this tea comes from ancient trees 50-70 years old. Nestled in the Wu Dong Mountain range (985m-1100m elevation), this region has a 700-year-old tea-making tradition, with traditional charcoal roasting.

Why Ancient Tree Honey Orchid?

• Incredible Longevity: Can be brewed 15+ times while maintaining full-bodied flavor

• Richer, More Complex Aroma: Ancient trees absorb more nutrients, producing tea with intense floral fragrance and lingering sweetness

• Deeper, Fuller Taste: Higher levels of polyphenols and amino acids create a smooth, thick mouthfeel with a strong returning sweetness

Traditional Charcoal Roasting – A True Connoisseur’s Choice

Unlike electric roasting, charcoal roasting enhances aroma and depth, removing any bitterness while preserving the tea’s unique characteristics. The process allows the leaves to absorb negative ions and far-infrared energy, creating a deeper, more complex roasted note.

Additionally, charcoal-roasted Dancong:

• Ages gracefully, developing richer flavors over time

• Has lower moisture content, making it easier to store

• Requires multiple rounds of small-batch roasting to ensure perfect consistency

The result? A tea that is visually stunning, rich in flavor, highly aromatic, and naturally sweet—a stark contrast to the mild taste and cloudy appearance of electrically roasted teas.
