Origination

  • Historical Background: "Lao Cha Tou" (Old Tea Head) is a byproduct of manual fermentation (Wo Dui). During the fermentation process, pectin in the tea leaves, combined with pressure and high temperature in large piles, forms these hard chunks. Initially considered unusable, these chunks were later found to have a unique and appealing flavor profile, characterized by higher sweetness and mellowness compared to general shou cha. Consequently, these chunks were processed and marketed as "Lao Cha Tou."
  • Name Origin: "Lao Cha Tou" literally translates to "Old Tea Head," with "Tou" describing chunks in Chinese. Additionally, "Cha Tou" can refer to those responsible for making tea.
  • Introduction in Dayi Lineup: This product was introduced by Dayi in 2006.

  • Flavor Profile: The tea offers a smooth and thick flavor, with richness and depth.
