Black tea Golden Yunnan

Yunnan Golden is one of the most famous varieties of Chinese black tea, grown in the mountainous regions of Yunnan Province. Its uniqueness lies in its high content of golden tips (young buds), which give the tea a soft, rich flavor without bitterness.

The taste is deep, velvety, with notes of cocoa, dried fruits and spices. The aroma is sweet, honey-chocolate, with a light smoky trail. The infusion is dark amber with a golden hue. Ideal for slow tea drinking or paired with desserts.
