Baozhong Tea (Pouchong)

Baozhong Tea, also known as Pouchong, is a partially oxidized, aromatic Chinese tea that balances freshness and complexity.

The tea leaves are often twisted into tight curls or flat shapes, enhancing their appearance and aroma. Baozhong is appreciated for its delicate taste and fragrant profile, making it a popular choice for those seeking a nuanced, lightly oxidized tea. It is often enjoyed plain to appreciate its subtle layers of flavor.
