The only black tea from the puerh tea province is the Yunnan Black. Special since produced with the big leaf variety of the camelia sinensis. When you compare the ‘normal’ Yunnan Black with this Golden Yunnan Black, you see directly the big golden tips. Tea buds from the big tea trees. This tea originates in the Yunnan Black tea capital Fengqing, nearby the Myanmar border. Very sweet and special black tea taste, different from any other black tea available.
Tea-Adventure connects tea enthusiasts with tea producers who care for their product. We select only the finest handpicked leaf tea, from tea gardens in the remotest mountain locations in China. We buy directly from the farmers and buy only tea without artificial additives. The tea’s taste and quality first and foremost. We consider too the welfare of the workers and the impact that the production process hason the environment. When tea tasting, we pay particular attention to the fragrance and appearance of the leaves. It's essential to feel good after drinking a cup of tea.
I’m nearly through my stash of Golden Yunnan Black.
IMO this represents the ‘real’ black tea. Black tea like black tea should taste. The commentary by tea-adventure may be that this tea is exceptional and different, but – although the taste is indeed very good (and maybe exceptional, my taste buds aren’t that refined) – it’s also everything I’d expect from a black tea and in that respect not so different.
A good quality tea that taste wise is a happy middle of the road tea, without ‘typical’ taste qualities that one may of may not like.
A real stasher! I’ll be restocking soon…
