Description

This is an extraordinary black tea—one of the best we have tasted in recent years. By selecting only the choicest downy leaf-buds of Yunnan’s unique large-leaf tea plants, skilled artisans have traditionally hand-crafted a shimmering, golden bud black tea that is pure gold. When infused, the bright golden buds darken to a deep red, creating a rich amber tea with an exceptionally smooth, full-bodied, malty flavor. Our Imperial Yunnan Gold is sure to register as one of the more memorable tea-tasting experiences—even among the most experienced connoisseurs.
