Lao Cha Po Liubao Dark Tea – Aged 2010, Wild Old Trees, Smooth & Sweet
$14.99 USD
Unit price perLao Cha Po Liubao Dark Tea – Aged 2010, Wild Old Trees, Smooth & Sweet
$14.99 USD
Unit price per“Lao Cha Po” specifically refers to old leaves (not tender buds) harvested one week before and after Shuangjiang (one of China’s 24 solar terms, around October 23, marking the start of colder weather). These are mostly coarse leaves from the current year or 2–3-year-old growth. “Cha Po” is the Liubao people’s respectful name for old leaves. In the past, farmers sold tender buds as high-quality tea, while coarse old leaves were kept as everyday tea. The name reflects the farmers’ wisdom of “making full use of what you have.”
Around Shuangjiang, large temperature differences and reduced rainfall make the old leaves thicker and richer in sugars and nutrients, giving the tea a natural cane sugar sweetness. Tea harvested at this time has less astringency and a smoother, naturally sweet taste.
This Lao Cha Po tea was brewed at the tea bar during the 15th Northwest Tea Festival and loved by everyone, receiving high praise.
This tea is made using the traditional Liubao “picking and cleaning old leaves” method: fresh leaves are briefly blanched in hot water, then sun-dried or air-dried. Blanching reduces bitterness, while the drying process, similar to white tea, preserves most of the tea’s natural compounds.
This batch of Lao Cha Po comes from wild, aged tea trees in Shizhai Town, Wuzhou City, with tree ages of 30–50 years, making the raw material rare. Because it uses old trees, even with only 20 years of aging, the tea exhibits flavor comparable to 30+ years aged tea. The tea has a distinct medicinal aroma and carries the forest-like character unique to old trees, offering a rich and unique flavor.

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.

You’ll experience Longjing (Dragon Well) green tea made from three renowned tea tree varietals: Wu Niu Zao, Longjing #43, and the heritage Longjing Qunti. Though harvested and processed in the same way, each tea reflects its unique tree’s characteristics. This collection allows tea lovers to discover their preferred varietal of this classic green tea.
Net weight of tea: 45g, including:
Longjing Green Tea (Wuniuzao variety): 15g
Longjing Green Tea (Qunti variety): 15g
Longjing Green Tea (Longjing 43 variety): 15g

Key Benefits:
Explore Different Varietals: Taste the difference between three tea tree types that shape the final flavor and texture of Longjing tea.
Educational Tasting Experience: Perfect for tea enthusiasts looking to learn about how different varietals affect tea’s character.
Authentic Craftsmanship: Each tea is crafted using traditional methods to retain the unique characteristics of each varietal.
Heritage and Innovation: From the traditional Qunti varietal to the newer Longjing #43, this collection offers a blend of tradition and modern cultivation.
Recommendation Reasons:
Understand Varietal Differences: This collection is designed for those who want to explore how tea tree varietals influence the taste and mouthfeel of Longjing tea.

Quality and Expertise: Made by experienced tea masters, this collection brings the highest quality Longjing green tea directly to your cup.
Value for Tea Enthusiasts: This curated set offers a chance to taste and compare teas that are not always easy to find in Western markets.
We noticed that many popular Longjing teas are "knife-cut" varieties. These Green Tea are made from leaves cut after high-grade teas have been hand-harvested. As a result, they contain more stems, and the leaves are often incomplete, producing a weaker flavor and possibly coming from non-authentic Longjing varieties. We wanted to offer a Longjing tea that delivers the authentic taste, variety, and craftsmanship at an entry-level price, allowing more people to experience the true flavors of this iconic tea.
Why choose our Longjing?
Craftsmanship: Handcrafted by a Longjing master with over 30 years of experience, our tea combines traditional techniques and modern refinement.
Seasonal Selection: We’ve chosen 谷雨茶 (Grain Rain) tea, which is harvested just after Qingming tea. The taste difference is minimal, but the price is significantly more affordable.
High-Altitude Quality: Our tea comes from Zhejiang Lishui’s Longjing heirloom variety. The climate and high altitude (900-1000 meters) offer conditions similar to West Lake, but with superior pricing and quality.
Leaf Grade: Selected for its high grade—one bud, two leaves—this tea is always made from the freshest spring harvest of the current year, ensuring it is new every year. Ideal for those who enjoy a clean, refreshing taste with signature chestnut and bean notes.
Precision Hand-Picking: Each batch is handpicked to ensure no stems and minimal tea dust, ensuring a purer brew with authentic flavor.
This tea is perfect for:
Tea lovers seeking an authentic Longjing experience with superior craftsmanship, and flavor,
People needing a mild caffeine boost, as Longjing’s caffeine content is moderate, helping with focus and alertness,
Tea culture enthusiasts, as Longjing is one of China’s top 10 famous teas with a rich history and tradition.
If you're looking for an entry-level authentic variety, craftsmanship, and flavor in Zhejiang Longjing, this is the most cost-effective option we could find!

Charcoal Roasting: The Art of Traditional Oolong
Charcoal roasting is the soul of traditional oolong tea. Using slow, low heat from wood like longan or lychee, it transforms the leaves, creating a rich flavor profile with caramel sweetness, mineral notes, and a smoky depth.
This method is perfect for Wuyi Rock Tea and Phoenix Dancong, turning grassy flavors into smooth, complex profiles and bringing out caramel and fruit-like sweetness.
Compared to modern electric roasting, charcoal roasting offers:
Better texture — glossy dark brown leaves vs. greenish-brown
Richer aromas — smoky and natural tea fragrances vs. a single roasted flavor
More infusions — over 8 brews vs. 5
Longer shelf life — improves over 5+ years vs. needing to be consumed within the year
Despite challenges like higher carbon emissions, charcoal roasting is essential for high-end oolong, much like oak barrels for fine wine. It elevates tea from "fresh leaves" to a living, evolving art.
Electric Roasting: The Modern Approach to Oolong Tea
Electric roasting is a key technique in modern oolong tea production, offering significant advantages in efficiency and consistency. Using electric heating elements, the temperature is precisely controlled between 70-130°C, with roasting time typically ranging from 2-5 hours. This process improves production speed compared to traditional charcoal roasting.
One of the standout features of electric roasting is its digital temperature control, maintaining a stable temperature within ±5°C. This eliminates the uneven heat fluctuations common in charcoal roasting, making it ideal for light-fermented oolongs that preserve fresh floral and fruity aromas.
In terms of flavor, electric-roasted teas shine with vibrant floral notes and a refreshing taste. The tea is clear and bright in color. While it lacks the rich depth of charcoal-roasted teas, it meets the demand for light, refreshing tea that modern consumers crave.

Unit price perOolong Tea: The Balance of Oxidation
Oolong tea is a partially oxidized tea, with oxidation levels ranging from 10% to 70%. Oxidation plays a key role in shaping the tea's aroma and the brightness of its flavor. Light oxidation creates fresh floral and fruity notes, while higher oxidation brings out richer, more mature fruit or honey-like aromas.
Lightly Oxidized Oolong (10%–25%): Examples like Wen Shan Baozhong and light-roast Tieguanyin showcase fresh floral and fruity scents.
Moderately Oxidized Oolong (25%–50%): Teas such as Phoenix Dan Cong and medium-roast Tieguanyin have a balanced profile, combining floral notes with hints of honey, fruit, or roasting, resulting in a complex aroma.
Heavily Oxidized Oolong (50%–70%): Classics like Da Hong Pao, Wuyi Rougui, and Oriental Beauty deliver mature fruit aromas, roasted or caramel-like notes, and a smooth, full-bodied brew.
This product includes four renowned oolong teas, all lightly roasted but with varying oxidation levels. It’s the perfect way to explore how different oxidation levels influence the flavor and aroma of oolong tea.
