The Organic Yellow Dragon Yellow Tea comes from controlled organic plantations located in the mountainous areas of Yunnan, near the city of Pu'er, at altitudes reaching 1,900 meters.
Harvesting takes place in May, when the leaves have developed a complete aromatic structure.
The processing follows a scheme similar to that of great Chinese green teas, with one fundamental difference: after rolling, the leaves are left to rest for about seven days in closed bamboo containers.
This phase of slow, controlled oxidation, typical of yellow tea, gives the product a darker leaf color and a more rounded and profound taste profile, mitigating vegetal notes in favor of greater complexity.
