- Commodity name: GABA Da Hong Pao Brick
GABA Da Hong Pao Brick is a compressed tea cake made from premium Wuyi Mountain rock oolong (Yancha) that has undergone anaerobic fermentation to boost its GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid) content. Unlike loose-leaf GABA oolong, this brick format offers enhanced aging potential, deeper flavor concentration, and a unique balance of roasted minerality and soothing umami richness.
Origin: China
Tea Type: Oolong Tea
Appearance: Tightly pressed, dark brown with occasional golden tips; resembles a small chocolate bar or pu-erh cake.
Aroma: Charcoal-roasted nuts, dried longan, and a faint fermented sweetness (like aged pu-erh meets oolong).
Taste
First Infusion: Strong roasted mineral base (classic yanyun "rock rhyme") with a hint of dark chocolate.
Mid-Steeps: GABA's influence shines—stewed stone fruit (plum, apricot), molasses, and a creamy vanilla undertone.
Later Infusions: Evolves into honeyed orchid and warm spice, with a lingering cooling sensation (huigan).Benefits:
1. Stress & Anxiety Relief – GABA promotes relaxation without drowsiness.
2. Digestive Support – Yancha's roasting aids metabolism; GABA may improve gut health.
3. Blood Circulation – May help regulate blood pressure.
4. Aging Potential – Like pu-erh, compressed GABA oolong develops more complexity over time.Brewing Method:
Breaking the Brick: Use a tea pick to gently pry off 5–8g (about a thumbnail-sized piece).
Rinse: Quick 5-second wash with 95°C (203°F) water to awaken leaves.
Gongfu Style:
Water Temp: 95–100°C (203–212°F).
Steep Time: Start with 10–15 seconds, increasing by 5 seconds per infusion.
