Our wild purple Yabao tea from Da Xue Mountain offers an delicate aroma of cream, pink roses and hints of citrus. These exclusive tea buds are hand-picked from sprouts on the small twigs of Camellia Crassicolumna tea tree. Is Yabao a white tea or a pu erh tea? Yabao tea involves minimal processing as it’s only handpicked and then sun-dried. Because its production method is similar to most white teas, it’s generally also classified as a white tea. The taste also mostly resembles that of a white tea soft and smooth base and a floral aroma. Some tea drinkers consider Yabao to be a raw pu erh tea, because you can age Yabao tea like a pu erh. At last, one could say that Yabao is neither white nor pu erh as it’s not made from the leaves and buds, but the sprouts on the twigs of a tea tree. Independent from it’s classification, Yabao is a unique tea since it is made from the sprouts of a tea tree, not leaves & buds.
