Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
Grown in China's revered Yunnan Province, this golden tip-rich tea is made during the last two weeks of March and the first two weeks of April when the new season growth provides these coveted tips. This is a full-bodied, astringent tea with a heady bouquet. You'll note a malty profile with a hint of jammy tea flavour; delicious clear and outstanding with milk. Medium-level caffeine, very high in antioxidants. Our tea label provides you with clear steeping instructions to ensure a perfect cuppa every time.
