A unique twist on the classic Fu Brick, this artisanal blend marries Anhua’s finest dark tea leaves with a small portion of wild mulberry leaf (桑叶) adding a subtle herbal nuance and extra health benefits. Over years of aging, the legendary "golden flowers" (jin hua)—a beneficial probiotic bloom—have flourished within the brick, giving it a distinctive aroma and a smooth, creamy texture.

warm, woody fragrance with hints of dried fruit and a faint herbal whisper (thanks to the mulberry)

The taste is smooth, slightly sweet, with layers of mushroom, malt, and a lingering honeyed aftertaste. The golden flowers add a velvety mouthfeel, making each sip deeply comforting—like a well-worn leather-bound book steeped in tradition.

Sourced from the same remote, wild tea gardens as our Tian Jian, this Fu Brick was traditionally pressed and left to ferment slowly in Anhua’s humid climate. After 12-15 days of Wo Dui (piling for fermentation), it's longer than loose leaf Heicha to deepen the umami. The addition of wild-harvested mulberry leaves lends a delicate sweetness and a touch of herbal complexity. The jin hua (Eurotium cristatum) naturally cultivated during aging, transforms the tea, mellowing its edges and enriching its profile.
