Golden Needle—Yunan Black Tea

Golden Needle Black Tea

Origin: Sourced from the rich tea fields of Yunnan, China, Golden Needle Black Tea is a premium variety celebrated for its refined quality and elegant taste.

Characteristics: The tea leaves are slender and upright, showcasing strong and well-developed buds that are entirely covered in a beautiful golden hue. Once brewed, the tea yields a bright, vibrant red liquor, exuding an intense sweet fragrance. The tea soup is sweet, smooth, and full-bodied, delivering a balanced and harmonious taste that leaves a lingering, elegant finish.

Brewing Instructions:

• Kung Fu Brewing: For a refined experience, add the tea leaves to a Gaiwan with a recommended tea-to-water ratio of 1:30. Use water heated to 80-85°C (176-185°F). Steep for approximately 3 seconds before pouring. This method allows for multiple infusions to appreciate the tea’s evolving flavors.
• Casual Brewing: For a more relaxed approach, use a teapot and add the tea leaves with a suggested tea-to-water ratio of 1:80. Adjust the amount of tea according to your personal preference. Brew with water at 80-85°C (176-185°F).
