Origin & Terroir of Dianhong Black Tea

Tea Origin (Fengqing, Yunnan)

This black tea is made from black tea materials sourced from Fengqing County, Yunnan, China, one of the key core regions for Dianhong (Yunnan Black Tea / Yunnan red tea). This area is known for large-leaf tea material (an Assam-type tea tree line) that often delivers strong aroma and good brewing endurance.

This version is selected as a great-value everyday Yunnan black tea, with a clean, good-looking leaf appearance. In the cup, it features a clear honey-like aroma, a naturally sweet taste, and excellent brewing endurance—a reliable Chinese black tea with excellent everyday value.

Our Sourcing Method

We do not rely on hard-to-verify stories about “one specific tea farmer” or “one tea master.” Instead, we choose our materials through a market-based selection process. Each tea season, we collect samples from multiple sources and repeatedly test, screen, and taste them.

Tea Sourcing

In the end, we select the version with better brewing endurance, better value, and better leaf appearance—so what we offer you is chosen for real performance, not just a good story.
