Red tea Golden Mao Feng
Golden Mao Feng is an elite red tea from spring tips. It has a mild malty taste, amber infusion and honey-floral aroma. A tea for those looking for sophistication without bitterness.
Golden Mao Feng (金毛峰, Jin Mao Feng) is a fine red tea from Anhui or Yunnan provinces, made from early spring buds and the first young leaves, rolled into thin needles. Due to the high content of golden tips (hairy tea buds), the tea has a soft, malty flavor with warm notes of honey, caramel, apricot and dried fruit.
The infusion is clear, amber-golden, the aroma is sweet, with a slight floral touch and a hint of baking. This is a tea with a mild character, without bitterness, ideal for both a morning wake-up call and a cozy evening.
