Description:

The 2018 DaYi "Lao Cha Tou" Brick is a unique Puerh Shou Cha renowned for its distinctive origins and rich flavor profile. Originating as a byproduct of the fermentation process, "Lao Cha Tou" offers a unique and attractive tea flavor characterized by its higher sweetness and mellowness compared to general shou cha.

Origination:

  • "Lao Cha Tou" (Old Tea Head) refers to the chunks of tea that form as a side product during the manual fermentation process (Wo Dui). These chunks, formed due to the action of pectin from tea leaves under pressure and high temperature, were traditionally discarded as they were considered unusable. However, over time, people discovered that these chunks possessed a unique and appealing tea flavor, characterized by higher sweetness and mellowness. Thus, they began processing these chunks for consumption, giving rise to the name "Lao Cha Tou." This practice began during the lineup of DaYi in 2006.

Taste Profile:

  • The tea offers a smooth and thick flavor profile, with a richness and depth that is complemented by notes of caramel sweetness and aged tea flavor.

Storage:

  • This brick has been stored naturally in Guangzhou, allowing it to develop its flavor profile and retain its distinctive characteristics over time.
