Twisted Yunnan Dianhong
Twisted Yunnan Dianhong is a take on the traditional looking golden-leaf Dianhong black tea from Yunnan province. We have discovered this tea to be an amazingly simple and delicious tea for when we are eating dimsum or other greasy snacks! It's taste is familiar to Dianhong tea lovers, but looks unique due to its twisted shape. The benefit with such a tea as this one being rolled in this fashion is that it is less likely to be broken, and also releases its flavors over many infusions.
