Yunnan Gold (also known as Dian Hong) is a high end gourmet black tea that is especially wonderful. It has notes of milk chocolate and pepper, as well as a natural apricot-toned sweetness despite being unflavored. This tea has a smooth, silky mouthfeel and brews to a bright red liquid.
The most substantial difference between this tea and other Chinese black teas is the amount of fine leaf buds, or "golden tips," present in the dried tea.
