Dian Hong 滇紅
Origin: Feng Qing, Yunnan, China
Tea Type: Black Tea
Harvested: Spring 2022
Notes: Floral, Sweet
Another newcomer to the long tea history of Yunnan. Dian Hong’s vibrancy and sweetness have easily captured the crowds, even with people who don’t normally enjoy black tea might change their mind.
This Dian Hong is hand-picked in the autumn of 2020. The 1 bud and 1 – 2 leaves structured remained mostly intact beautifully as it's processed by hand. The dry leaves give off an inviting honey note. The tea is brewed to a golden amber colour with very little astringency, making it another great black tea to enjoy straight.
