Chinese Black Tea with Honey, Floral & Fruity Sweet Aroma Loose Leaf Tea 200g

Core Mengku Origin, Authentic Large-leaf Character

Most Yunnan black teas use raw materials from Fengqing. China Red is different — its leaves come from **Mengku Town, Shuangjiang County, Lincang, Yunnan**, the core producing region of Yunnan black tea. Blessed with high altitude, mild climate and fertile soil, this area grows Yunnan large-leaf tea buds rich in natural substances, laying the foundation for a full-bodied tea liquor and long-lasting aroma.

Dry Tea Leaves: Glossy Dark Slender Leaves with Golden Tips

China Red's dry leaves look different from other Yunnan Dianhong. The strips are **tight, slender and evenly formed**, with a glossy dark brown hue and fine golden tips on the buds. It releases a natural sweet aroma with no off-flavors; the strips are intact with very few broken pieces, fully showing the elegance of Gongfu black tea.

Tea Liquor: Bright Golden Broth with Honey & Floral Fruity Aroma

Like white tea, China Red brews into a bright golden, translucent liquor, and both teas are known for their sweetness. But China Red's aroma and sweetness are nothing like white tea — nor like ordinary black tea. The liquor feels silky and smooth. **Honey sweetness opens first**, then blends into elegant floral and fruity notes — natural, soft and never harsh. It tastes mellow and smooth; sweetness spreads from the tip of the tongue down to the throat, with a long, gentle aftertaste. Well-balanced and full-flavored, it holds up to multiple infusions and is ideal for daily drinking.

Infused Leaves: Uniform Reddish Brown, Soft and Resilient

After full infusion, the tea leaves turn a glossy reddish brown, with complete and stretched blades that feel soft and resilient to the touch, free of hard stems or scorched leaves. This visually verifies the premium quality of raw materials and the precision of fermentation, serving as tangible proof of fine tea quality.
