Description

Third in the “Drunk on Red” series, but this year’s production is composed of Spring 2013 first flush Feng Qing material. The tea is picked, wilted, fried, bruised by rolling, wet withered under the sun and then finally sun-dried completely. The resulting taste is smooth and sweet with expansive cha qi. Yunnan large leaf varietal sun-dried black tea can be aged for several years with subtle changes occuring every 3 to 6 months.
