- The history of Mengding Huang Ya is steeped in legend. According to one tale, during the Han dynasty, a legendary Taoist named Wu Lizhen went on a quest to find a tea that could help him reach immortality. He discovered the tea in the Mengding Mountain area of Sichuan, which is where the tea gets its name. Today, Mengding Huangya is still considered a treasure and is highly valued by tea enthusiasts worldwide.
- This special yellow tea was long ago introduced as an imperial tribute from Mengding Mountain, located in Ya'an City, Sichuan province, the first tea garden ever created. The tea bushes growing in this area are shrouded throughout the year by cloud and mist, which enhances the freshness of their flavor. It is a famous yet uncommon kind of tea, as yellow tea is the rarest among the 6 tea categories.
- Mengding Huang Ya is a rare and exquisite Yellow Tea grown in Mengding Mountain in the Sichuan province of China. Entirely hand-picked and processed, coming from a region with thousands of years of tea history, this elegant tea with strong Qi is a true work of art.
- Mengding Huang Ya is made using only the most tender raw material of the first spring tea. Tea farmers collect the leaves from an old local cultivar - Lao Chuancha. The tea bushes were grown on the mountain slopes more than 70 years ago. They now grow freely, scattered on the hills, in a semi-wild state.
- Meng Ding Huang Ya is fully covered by soft fluff which accounts for their great freshness. To obtain this rarity, these small gems undergo a process of yellowing (Mènhuáng 闷黄): after being pan-fried, they are wrapped in sheets of paper, where a warm-humid condition gives the tea buds a slight oxidation, making them acquire the typical yellow-green color, and turns the liquor light-gold, giving it a buttery sweetness. After repeating the processes of pan-frying and yellowing for three times, the buds are finally dried by charcoal-fire. The result is a truly exclusive, high-grade tea that will elevate your tea experience to the next level. The traditional handmade technology and skills of the tea master who produced it turn every cup into a memorable tea tasting.
- When brewed, Meng Ding Huang Ya has a rich, delicate flavor that is both smooth and refreshing. The aroma is high and sweet, with hints of dried apricot, cocoa and honey. The tea has a mellow and velvety taste, with a subtle nutty undertone and a long, sweet finish. The liquor is a pale yellow, and its clarity is a testament to the tea's quality.

Customer Reviews
This mengding huangya was the first time I felt yellow tea lived up to having its own category. Both fragrance and taste are distinct to other categories of tea, this tea specifically is wonderfully nutty and is increasingly comforting, it withstands MANY steeps and is a treat! Highly recommend trying it out it’s more than worth it’s price
The tea leaves are short and fat with one bud and one leaf. The traditional process is used to dull yellow, and the aftertaste is smoother, softer and sweeter. Mengding Mountain Tea, which is delicious and delicious, is trustworthy and recommended.
Appearance: The dry tea is uniform, basically the cusps. When the bag is opened, there is a faint fragrance of chestnuts. Taste: The mouth of the brew is full and moist, and the taste is good! Satisfy! Logistics is also very fast, with five-star praise!
Spring tea with thick mesophyll, fresh taste, strong aroma and firm appearance is the most beautiful gift from the earth.
The first-picked tea leaves are yellow in color, plump and light yellow, which is stuffy yellow by traditional craftsmanship. It tastes good, strong and sweet, and the soup is bright yellow. It is authentic Mengding tea.
