Dian Hong is the black tea of Yunnan province. It is generally known for a smooth, rounded cup with sweet, malty notes. In this tea the leaves are shaped into small pagoda forms – the supplier calls it “golden pagoda”, after the golden tips in the leaf.
Ingredients: Black tea. Storage: Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from light and strong odors.
We haven’t tasted this batch yet; tasting notes describe Dian Hong in general.
