Yunnan Province in the southwest of China is widely regarded as one of the most ancient and respected tea-producing regions in the world. Originally known for its green teas, Yunnan began producing black tea in 1939. These black teas quickly rose in prominence and are now considered among the finest expressions of Chinese tea craftsmanship.
Often called the kings of Chinese black teas, Yunnan black teas are celebrated for their deep aroma, rich taste, and enduring smoothness. The tea leaves often feature beautiful golden tips, and the infusion offers a full-bodied flavour with a naturally sweet finish. The unique environment of Yunnan's high mountains, combined with its ancient soil and misty climate, nurtures tea that carries remarkable strength and refined character.
Every cup of Yunnan black tea reflects centuries of heritage and wisdom. It invites tea lovers into a quiet, grounding moment that honours the rich history of Chinese tea. This is not just a beverage, but a timeless experience rooted in nature and tradition.
Serving suggestion:
We recommend brewing black tea with water at around 95 degrees Celsius. Steep the tea for approximately 3 minutes, then taste to see if the strength suits your preference. If you desire a stronger brew, you may steep it for another minute or two. Use a teapot with an infuser for best results. If a teapot is not available, an infuser ball, infuser cup, or a fine mesh strainer will also work well. For each serving, use about 3 to 4 grams of loose leaf tea, or roughly one teaspoon. This tea may be steeped a second time; simply extend the brewing time to draw out the remaining flavour.
