Liu An Cha
Brand & Factory : N/A | Type : Sheng/Raw | Vintage Year : 2007
(rating: 4.1 out of 5)
Liu An tea originates from An Hui province but it first gained popularity in Guang Dong province after a Chinese doctor served it as a medicinal tea to cure heatstroke and stomach ailments in the Ming Dynasty. Because of its medicinal properties, it quickly gained fame and spread throughout China. While it is technically not a Pu-erh tea (due to the material used), the post-fermentation processing is very similar. Like Pu-erh tea, Liu An tea gets better with careful aging.

The taste of this tea resembles that of a green/raw Pu-erh but is somewhat sweeter. After a few sips, the sweet aftertaste will linger on in your mouth. Good for multiple infusion.

Correcte Pu-erh voor alledag. Goeie kwaliteit/prijs verhouding. Verleidelijke neus van chocolade en snoepgoed doch niet al te zoet in de afdronk.

I really like this tea! It´s the only liu an I´ve tried, and I´ve heard that there are some not-so-good ones out there, but this is really enjoyable. My second shipment. The price is great too.

This is a nice tea.. and great for the price. I don’t think of it as a pu-erh though -- it tastes more like a dragonwell green tea to me, bright and lightly sweet. I can also taste the "damp stone" notes that others have mentioned -- it’s quite a transporting flavor, brings me to a rainy day in the countryside.

I like the smell of the dry tea leaves but still don’t enjoy drinking it... maybe I’m just not a Pu-erh fancier.

Good

Nice rust colored liquor. Someone else here described something like damp stone in the flavor. I’ll agree with that. I wonder what medicinal qualities it may have. Interesting.

Interesting aged tea--not quite the same as pu’erh.

A good tea, I didn’t find any unpleasant taste or aroma in it and it is a nice tea to drink. Lasts a normal number of infusions. The slight bitterness is an odd character, but each tea has to be different.

Quite earthy but nice to drink, relaxing. I would recommend this tea.

I’ve always felt that the smell of pu-erh tea in general reminded me of barnyard animals. This one reminds me a bit more of the actual barn though. A sort of barn all full up of hay that is soft and nice to lie on. As for the taste I fail to find the ’dust and dirt’ that other more negative reviews have described. I’ll stand by my claim that it tastes like summer gone by. Very nice.

I have been very surprised by this tea. I thaught it was a Pu-ehr that taste as another one. it is not the case. the taste is like a dampness stone with earthy fragrances. It is a strange, magic and good tea.

Good tea, but very specific. Some may even hate it. Old taste.

Armandas (8/7/2006)
 
 
Someone out there must like this style but not me. This tea obviously has the "beet" note, as others have described this style of tea. It also has some sweetness but there are hints of dust and dirt in it that I don’t care for. I liked this one better when I steeped it cold. Steeped this way, the unpleasent qualities diminished.

This tea has a rather strong dry smell. When infused it gives a beautiful strong, clear classic tea colour and a rich flavour that lasts for multiple infusions. It also leaves a lovely taste in your mouth when you finish the cup. A tea I think I’ll keep coming back to.

Very good tea. I love it.
