Frequently Asked Questions

1. Where does your Fu Tea come from?

Our Fu Tea is crafted from premium tea leaves harvested in Huaihua, Hunan, China, and traditionally processed in Jingyang, Shaanxi—the historic birthplace of Fu Brick Tea. Under the guidance of Master Jia Genshe, using traditional techniques passed down through generations, each tea brick undergoes natural fermentation and is aged for 4–15+ years to develop its distinctive aroma, smooth taste, and the characteristic “Golden Flowers” (Eurotium cristatum).

2. How do I brew Fu Brick Tea?

Break off approximately 5–8 grams of tea and rinse it briefly with hot water. Brew with water at 95–100°C (203–212°F) for 20–30 seconds for the first infusion, then gradually increase the brewing time. Fu Tea can be steeped multiple times while maintaining its rich flavor.

3. Which countries do you ship to?

We currently ship to the GCC countries, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman, as well as many other international destinations. All orders are carefully packaged in premium gift boxes to ensure safe delivery.

4. How should I store Fu Tea?

Store Fu Tea in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight and strong odors. With proper storage, Fu Tea continues to mature naturally over time, developing an even richer aroma and smoother taste.
