Description
This Lincang black tea delivers all the beloved qualities of a classic Dianhong. With notes of cocoa, malt, and caramel sweetness, it hits the nostalgia points that remind us why we fell for Yunnan black tea in the first place.
Fully oxidized and traditionally processed, the roast sits comfortably in the background, allowing a sweeter, almost sugary character to come through in the aroma. The aftertaste lingers with that signature caramel quality, making this a prime candidate for daily drinking.
A charming and well executed tea that does exactly what a good Dianhong should – nothing more, nothing less.

Alexandra Verville-Paris (verified owner) –
Delightful aroma and an ideal companion for winter. Very pleasing and accessible, without being overly complex. I found myself enjoying it effortlessly, with relatively little flavor evolution throughout the session compared to other teas.
// Smell: Warm chocolate tea bread, underlying roasted chocolate chip cookie notes, butterscotch caramel square, dessert bread with ripe fruits, dried cranberry, and a subtle salty touch.
// Texture: Thick, almost sticky mouthfeel that spreads through the mouth like a gentle heat wave.
// Taste: Cranberry yogurt, homemade dark hot chocolate, spiced biscotti, and homemade spiced caramel over a warm slice of bread.
// Body sensation: Thick saliva, a fine sand-like sensation on the palate, cool feeling on the teeth, calm steady energy, lifted mood, and a sense of inner quiet.
