Lan Fei is a type of Yellow Tea, which belongs to one of the six major categories of Chinese tea. It is a slightly fermented tea unique to China.
The dry tea leaves are golden yellow or yellowish-green, with tightly rolled or uniform, straight, and upright strips or needle shapes. Its liquor (tea soup) is apricot yellow and bright.
The aroma is fresh and sweet, positioned between the refreshing clarity of Green Tea and the mellow richness of Black Tea. The flavor is mellow, thick, and sweet with a lingering aftertaste, free from bitterness or astringency, making it milder than Green Tea.
