Golden Spiral Dianhong Black Tea with Tangerine Peel

Based on our amazing "Organic Yunnan Whole Bud Golden Spiral Dianhong Black Tea", we have added 40% Tangerine Peel by weight of tea to create something very new and fresh.

We just loved the malty depth and floral notes of the Golden Spiral Dianhong, and this tea just screamed out for the addition of citrus, so we had a little play around and came up with our "Golden Spiral Dianhong Black Tea with Tangerine Peel".

This tea has all the qualities of the Organic Yunnan Whole Bud Golden Spiral Dianhong Black Tea, but the flavour profile and aftertaste is somehow very much lighter.

We really hope that you enjoy them magnificent blend.

What Is Golden Spiral Dianhong with Tangerine Peel?

Dianhong (滇红) — “Yunnan Red” — is China’s most celebrated black tea, prized for its golden buds, creamy texture, and honeyed aroma. The Golden Spiral (金螺, Jin Luo) style involves hand-rolling tender buds into curled spirals that resemble tiny golden shells.

In this blend, the tea’s velvety malt and cocoa-like richness intertwine with the zesty brightness of Tangerine Peel, a traditional ingredient known in Chinese tea culture for its digestive and balancing properties. Together, they create a cup that is both comforting and gently invigorating, with layered complexity and lingering sweetness.
