About 2015 Heroes of War Fu Dark Tea Brick 380g

Fu Brick stands out among dark teas due to its unique beneficial enzyme bacteria called 'Eurotium Cristatum', commonly referred to as 'Golden Flower'.

This Golden Flower produces amylase and oxidase enzymes that catalyse the conversion of protein and starch into monosaccharides. It also catalyses the oxidation of polyphenol compounds, transforming them into substances that support human wellbeing. This process not only enhances the tea's health properties but also elevates its flavour profile and overall quality.

Our Heroes of War Fu Dark Tea Brick is made by ChinaTea Hunan Anhua No.1 Tea Factory, honourably produced by COFCO Group.

Appearance & Taste

2015 Heroes of War Fu Dark Tea Brick 380g

This dark tea is formed into a rectangular brick shape through a traditional multi-stage production process. Starting with raw dark green tea leaves, the tea undergoes fixation (kill-green), followed by rolling, piling, a second rolling, drying, screening, blending, steaming, and finally compression into its brick form.

When brewed, you’ll experience a mellow, sweet flavour profile with an aftertaste that lingers beautifully. The liquor is exceptionally smooth with a brilliant amber hue—clean and bright red in appearance.

Taste: Chen, Sweet, Woody
