Liu Pao Brick Tea (Golden Flower Maternal Line )

Liu Pao Brick Tea Golden Flower Maternal Line is a classic Guangxi dark tea celebrated for its four defining characteristics: "red, rich, aged and mellow" (红浓陈醇). With a dense, dark brown appearance and betel nut aroma, this tea has been beloved across Guangdong, Guangxi, Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia for generations — a genuinely historical tea of deep cultural significance.
