Description

Made from sun dried old tree leaf harvested in Fengqing, Yunnan.

Long and tight tea threads with darkness and aged tea flavor.

Mellow, smooth and sweet.

Remark:

Made from spring tea leaves picked from tea tree ages during around 100 to 300 years growing on altitude between 1800m – 2000m in Fengqing county. Comparing to general Dian Hong (Yun Nan Black Tea), Shai Hong is Sun Dried instead of Roasted. The taste has more refreshing flavor, mellow thick and still some left Huigan (returning sweetness) and saliva producing which is similar to Sheng Puerh tea. Caffeine ratio is around 3.56%.
