This Michigan inspired tea - Yooper Yellow - is as unique as it's namesake - Michigan's UPer's.

Yellow tea, one of the 6 types of tea, is produced only in China. Most of the tea produced is consumed there and very little is exported.

Yooper Yellow carries a fresh, mellow, earthy flavor profile. With notes of malt and grain, the cup is smooth and round.

A true treat!

Yellow tea leaves.
Yellow tea is prepared similarly to green tea, except that the tea leaves are left damp in order to slightly oxidize the tea, therefore turning the leaves and brew a beautiful golden yellow. This process is actually much more intricate than it sounds. The Chinese refer to it as "men huang" or "sealing yellow," where early spring tea buds are pan-fired and then wrapped in cloth and steamed repeatedly over the course of a few days. This gently oxidizes the leaves before undergoing a slow charcoal drying process to maintain the robust flavor.
