yunnan
Yunnan black teas from China are known for their smooth, deep, and complex flavors.
 |
Flowery Yunnan The "flowery" in the name refers to the high quality leaf used in this tea, not to actual flowers. This tea brews up dark, thick, slightly earthy and sweet. There is something almost primordial to this flavor. |
 |
Golden Tip Yunnan This is a visually stunning tea, the leaves are golden, long, slightly twisted with a lot of tip. The aroma is deep, rich, slightly sweet. The steeped liquor is a dark bronze-red color with a complex, weighty flavor, notes of a slight sweet earthiness (similar to a Bordeaux wine), and just a hint of a spicy note in the background. |
 |
Yunnan FOP, ORGANIC A fabulous Yunnan black tea. Rich, full-bodied, aromatic with a hint of sweet earthiness and a velvety texture. |
 |
Yunnan Mandarin Special This is a golden tippy Yunnan black tea with spicy-fruity notes in the aroma and in the steeped liquor. In addition there is a clarity and freshness to the tea that is unusual in Yunnan teas. While still full-bodied, this tea is not over-strong, instead balancing complex layers of flavor beautifully. |
 |
Yunnan SGFOP1 This is a very high grade black Yunnan tea with an abundance of golden tips, and hints of anise and plum in the aroma. It steeps up extremely strong yet phenomenally smooth. Its flavor profile is sweet, strong, with hints of dark fruits, and an incredible velvety mouth feel. |
 |
Tea Brick, Yunnan This dark, very black, strong Chinese tea has been compressed into a 8 x 6 or 5 X 7 brick, that in the past served as a form of currency. Makes a very hearty, no-nonsense tea or a great conversation piece or decoration. |
