What Makes It Special?
This is true wild Dian Hong black tea, made from large-leaf Camellia sinensis var. assamica, the indigenous tea cultivar of Yunnan. The old-growth trees, untouched by modern cultivation, draw nutrients from deep mountain soils, resulting in a leaf with extraordinary richness and resilience.
The high altitude creates cooler temperatures and slower growth, concentrating the tea's aromatic oils and sugars. The result? A luxurious loose-leaf black tea with lingering sweetness, zero bitterness, and an unmistakably wild character.
