About this tea
Our finest grade of Dianhong black tea, harvested from Mengku heirloom varietal tea trees in China's southwestern Yunnan Province, the birthplace of tea. Masterfully oxidized into an auburn color flecked with golden buds, this black tea has an impressive strength, density and refined finish. Golden Yunnan has a richly textured infusion that offers hints of peppery spice, notes of chocolate and sweet lychee with a deep malty finish.

Origin

Wa Shan

Cangyuan County, Yunnan Province, China

Wa Shan Ecological Tea Garden sits in Lincang, on the border with Myanmar (Burma) in southwestern Yunnan. Surrounded by a lush and biodiverse mountainous region, this certified organic tea farm is one we have been working with since 2013. Wa Shan is a famous tea mountain since ancient times named after the Wa ethnic minority who have farmed tea in this region for more than a thousand years.

Traditional Preparation

Do not rinse this tea; infuse the 1st brew for 2 - 3 minutes.

Repeat several times until the flavor and aroma of the tea dissipates. As the brewing session ensues, increase the infusion time to coax out the body and strength of the final infusions. This top-shelf black tea is delightfully smooth and aromatic when brewed straight, or divine with a touch of milk and sugar.

Reviews Summary
Customers say: this black tea is smooth, malty, and full-bodied with complex flavors and no bitterness. Many describe it as their daily morning tea and favorite black tea overall. Users appreciate that it brews strong without becoming harsh and works well both hot and iced. Common feedback highlights its rich aroma, robust flavor, and versatility with or without milk. Several customers mention getting multiple steeps from the leaves. While most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, a few note inconsistent quality or find it flavorless compared to expectations.

    Smooth! Excellent taste!

    Enjoyed the tea as much as China Breakfast - my two favorite black teas from Rishi! Drink plain, the taste is smooth and perfect for mornings!

    Awesome tea

    This tea is stunning. Very aromatic as well as smooth. Very happy I ordered Golden Yunnon. When it is gone, I will quickly order another pound.

    Really Really Good!

    This has become one of my favorite daily teas. TBH, all of the tea that I've ordered from Rishi is excellent, and I try a lot of teas from other sellers as well. The nice thing about Golden Yunnan is that you can infuse it multiple times.
