Yunnan Gold Tip

loose leaf | black

From: $15.98

Yunnan Gold Tip is the superior variety to other Yunnan black teas. The plucking season usually takes place from March to November.

Our Yunnan Gold Tip dry leaves are easy to identify because of their golden downy appearance. When brewed, the liquor is reddish-gold in color.

This black tea is famous for its spicy and creamy taste with a hint of cocoa and pleasant black pepper flavor. As it cools, the taste becomes earthier and more complex without astringency.

    Very good tea with sweetness and flavor. Tips – wash the tea before the first brew and brew with boiled water.

    This is a very nice everyday black tea. It has strong unique flavor, but no bitterness. The taste ends with very a bit of sweetness.
