Yunnan Black Tea is generally called Dian Hong in China. Dian Hong translates literally as 'Yunnan Red.' Dian is another name for Yunnan Province. In China, 'black' tea is called 'red' tea because of the reddish brown color of infused liquor.The main difference between Yunnan Black Tea (Dian Hong) and the other Chinese black tea is the amount of fine leaf buds, or "golden tips," presented in the dried tea. It can be easily identified by its luscious soft leaves, and an unique peppery taste.
Premium Yunnan Black Tea (Dian Hong) is hand crafted in areas starting from the Fengqing County to the south of Dali in Western Yunnan. Only the pure buds or shoots including one tender leaf and one bud are hand picked, processed, and rolled into tightly shaped product. It is a remarkably refined black tea with characteristic Yunnan malty sweetness in complex, a pleasant and slightly drying astringency, and very little bitterness. This is a tea that can stand up to several brewing. To those who are unfamiliar with Yunnan Black Tea, we say it is similar in flavor to the tea from Assam region in India. In fact, Yunnan province is located north of Assam India. Many tea experts speculate that this geographic proximity is the reason for Yunnan black tea's tippy character. Many tea experts and tea lovers think Yunnan Black Tea (Dian Hong) is arguably the most underrated chinese tea.
