Imperial Feng Qing Dian Hong Black Tea of Yunnan * Spring 2013
This is the classic recipe of light fermentation black tea that has been produced by the Feng Qing tea factory for decades. It is hand-processed at each stage and isn’t rolled by machines so the leaf shape is well preserved and un-broken. The brewed liquor is a golden orange that is incredibly smooth and can be infused more than any black tea I have ever tasted. Both a beautiful tea and a tasty tea. Higher grade than previous years but worth the slightly higher price.
Production period: Spring 2013
Area: Feng Qing County of Lincang (Yunnan)
