Type: Black Tea

Origin: Yunnan province

Description:

Yunnan Dianhong (滇红茶) is a black tea that originates from Yunnan province, Southwest China. It is made from the leaves of the large-leaf tea trees that grow in the region and is known for its rich, full-bodied flavor and golden color.

Tasting notes

The tea leaves are hand-picked and then processed using traditional techniques, which involve withering, rolling, oxidation, and drying. This tea contains a higher amount of ‘golden tips’ than other black teas. The result is a tea that has a smooth, malty flavor with notes of honey and caramel, as well as a slightly sweet aftertaste.

Benefits

In addition to its delicious taste, Yunnan Dianhong has numerous health benefits. It is rich in antioxidants and other beneficial compounds and may:

•  Reduce stress and anxiety thanks to its high levels of L-Theanine

•  Stimulate the metabolism, increase energy levels, and help support weight loss

• Protect heart health and reduce the risk of heart-related issues

• Improve digestive health: The tannins in Yunnan Dianhong and other black teas have a mild astringent effect, potentially aiding in digestion and providing relief from gastrointestinal issues.
