China Yunnan Black Tea

$5.50

Yunnan is one of the world's finest teas. Our China Yunnan has golden buds and produces a golden liquor with a full-bodied taste and an illusive floral aroma. It is excellent plain or with a splash of milk and is perfect for breakfast.

Yunnan is an ancient province in southwestern China which borders Vietnam, Laos and Burma. Yunnan leads all other Chinese provinces in black tea production. This cloudy, misty, mountainous province has grown tea for 1700 years. The yun in Yunnan means "cloud" and most tea in Yunnan is grown at elevations of 3000 to 7000 feet. The tea plant itself is often considered a native of Yunnan, as 260 different varieties, some the size of large trees, can be found here.
