Feng Qing 凤庆

"Golden Needles" - an excellent variety of red tea from the Feng Qing area of Yunnan Province. The content of "Da Jin Hao" or "big golden tips" is about 60-70%. Richly hairy tips are evenly rolled. The color of the infusion is dark orange-red and remarkably clear. The aroma is more balanced and intense than in the Dian Hong Gong Fu class and you can smell the aroma of dried apricots, forest honey and peaches. The taste is very penetrating & delicate. The tea lasts many infusions, aftertaste persists in the mouth for a long time after drinking. Very good as a warming tea, which makes it especially suitable for drinking in the cold months of the year. For casual tea lovers, it does have euphoric effects.
