China Breakfast, Organic Fair Trade Black TeaOur breakfast tea of choice has a robust and flavorful taste profile that is rich and malty with subtle notes of chocolate. China Breakfast is a pure Dian Hong style black tea harvested from Yunnan’s antique tea trees.
The main difference between Dian hong and other Chinese black teas is the amount of fine leaf buds, or "golden tips," present in the dried tea.
Dian hong teas produces a brew that is brassy golden orange in colour with a sweet, gentle aroma and no astringency. Cheaper varieties of Dian hong produce a darker brownish brew that can be very bitter.
Dian hong is a relatively new product from Yunnan that began production in the early 20th century. The word "Diān" (滇) is the short name for the Yunnan region while "hóng" (紅) means "red (tea)"; as such, these teas are sometimes simply referred to as Yunnan red or Yunnan black. However, such references are often confusing due to the other varieties of teas produced in Yunnan as well as the ambiguous nature of the color classifications.Yunnan is located on the southwestern border of China. Due to the fact that climate there constantly changes, there is a saying "4 seasons in a mountain, different skies in 10 miles", which is very suitable for "Multi-dimensional Farming". Yunnan is the place where tea trees originated. Within the province, there were discoveries of ancient tea trees such as the 1700 years old "Bada" wild tea tree, and the 800 years old tea tree that was planted on the "Nan-Nuo" mountain. After hundreds and thousands of years, these trees Still have green leaves and new branches growing. Even the Chinese government regards it as a treasure and must be protected
