About Yunnan Black Pearls

This special tea is crafted from the Yunkang 10 cultivar (often used for making Pu Erh tea) and is grown in Mr. Yang's tea gardens in Jinggu, Yunnan (China). The tea leaves are hand-picked and artistically rolled into firm pearls. Upon infusion, it releases an intense chocolate aroma that transitions into a full-bodied, sweet flavour profile with notes of caramel and a hint of earthiness.


About Yunnan

Yunnan is the largest tea-growing region in China, located in the southern central part of the country, bordering Burma and Vietnam. The hilly terrain is renowned for producing black teas like China Golden Yunnan, Yunnan Black Pearls, and Yunnan Golden Buds. These teas have a mild, smooth taste that does not turn bitter.


Cultivation

Yunnan Black Pearls are unique due to their meticulous production process. Rolling the leaves into pearls is a traditional art that ensures each pearl retains its shape and enhances the tea preparation. This method not only preserves the tea's freshness but also allows a gradual release of the flavours, offering a rich and complex tasting experience.


Effects

Black tea contains antioxidants such as polyphenols and flavonoids that can boost the immune system and contribute to overall health. The caffeine in black tea stimulates circulation and metabolism, enhances mental alertness, and improves concentration.


How to enjoy

An exquisite companion to éclairs or spicy mushroom dishes, this tea also pairs beautifully with dark chocolate, nutty pastries, or a slice of caramel cake. Its rich chocolate and caramel notes perfectly complement sweet treats and provide a delightful contrast to savoury snacks.
