Introduction:
This Yunnan black tea is carefully selected from the spring harvest of 2024. Plucked from high-altitude tea gardens in Fengqing County, Yunnan, at elevations of approximately 1600 meters, the exceptional growing conditions impart a rich, robust flavor and complex layers of taste. The plucking standard of one bud and two leaves ensures a smooth, full-bodied texture, with notes of caramel, malt, and honey.

Reasons to Recommend:

  • Core Production Area: Grown in Fengshan Town, Fengqing County, Yunnan, where the average annual temperature ranges from 18°C to 22°C, with significant daily temperature variations. The annual precipitation is 1200-1700 mm, characterized by a climate where "morning and evening mists blanket the land on clear days, and clouds shroud the mountains on rainy days."
  • A National Gift: In 1986, Queen Elizabeth II was presented with Yunnan black tea as a national gift during her visit to China.
  • Unique Tea Variety: Sourced from the large-leaf tea trees of Yunnan, known for their rich, enduring flavor and high tolerance for multiple infusions. The large-leaf variety has a longer growth cycle (2-3 years), with large, pointed leaves that contain higher levels of water extract and other compounds.
  • High-Mountain Tea Gardens: Since ancient times, high mountains shrouded in mist have produced premium teas. This tea thrives in such environments, where lush vegetation and organic-rich soil, combined with extreme daily temperature fluctuations, enhance the accumulation of flavorful compounds in the leaves.

Tea Time Bliss

Tea time just got a whole lot better with Yunnan black tea. It's got this strong, bold character that I've been searching for. It's honestly the strongest black tea in my collection now, and I love how it adds a touch of bliss to my quiet moments.

Delicious black tea

As a huge fan of Assam teas, this Yunnan black tea is right up my alley. It is a bit sweeter in profile and a bit less astringent than Assam teas. You will still get the strong bold black tea flavor, but this makes a great milk tea due to its inherent sweetness and maltiness.

A woody wonder

The dry aroma is lovely. Sweetness of honey, and light plum with sweet woody notes. The leaf is a dusty dark chocolate color with hints of golden buds; beautifully twisted. A hint of chocolate lingers in the bag. The liquor color is so beautiful. A nice amber coloring. The taste is full of different woody notes. Desert wood, old house wood, some varnish (you'll experience this all in higher amounts as you steep it longer). The wet leaf aroma is a bit bready with hints of raisins.
