This tea treasure is from the fertile gardens in the high mountains of Hunan province. The tightly twisted, shiny black leaf with fine golden tips gives a deliciously sweet, smooth, exceptionally flavoured drink with hints of fruit and pepper. Natural growing methods are another bonus to this very rare tea, the total crop being only 200kgs picked around April and May. It is made entirely by hand from young tips that are withered, twisted, oxidised then dried and shaped before the final sorting is done.
