Discover the depth and elegance of Yunnan Imperial Black Tea (Dian Hong), one of the finest loose leaf teas from the birthplace of tea itself. Grown in China’s Yunnan province, this artisan tea is easily recognised by its abundance of golden tips and bold, tippy leaves. These golden buds lend a natural sweetness and rich character that has made Yunnan teas legendary worldwide. Our Yunnan Imperial 125g is a superb example of this tradition. Expect a cup that is luxuriously smooth, creamy like milk chocolate, yet intriguingly layered with hints of cocoa, black pepper, and a subtle earthiness that deepens as the tea cools. Its full-bodied flavour and silky finish make it an ideal breakfast tea, while its complexity invites you to sip and savour at any time of day. This is not just any black tea; it is loose leaf tea crafted with care. The large, hand-picked leaves are processed to preserve their natural complexity, producing a dark amber liquor with both strength and refinement. Perfect for those who enjoy a rich, rounded cup without bitterness. High Teas London, established in 2008 by one of the UK’s leading tea experts, is proud to bring you this outstanding Chinese black tea.

Indulge in a tea that blends heritage, craftsmanship, and flavour – a cup to remember with every brew.
