Description

Yunnan Strand Green is the cousin of Yunnan Golden Strand Black Tea, made from the same fine young bud and leaf material and rolled into narrow twisted strands. Instead of allowing the tea to oxidize, the assamica leaves are finished as a green tea, locking in the fresh pure Yunnan flavor. Yunnan Strand Green is full of big malty notes and green bean flavor for a hearty and full bodied green tea with a lingering aftertaste.
