Yunnan Imperial Tea

Delicate selection of tea from the Yunnan region of China. It has a sweet, smooth and sometimes velvety flavor, without reaching the strength of other black teas. This makes it ideal to drink mid-afternoon or during meals as a pairing.

There is one thing that we have always been clear about at Aromas de Té: we only give our customers those products that we would choose for ourselves . That is, the best and through a wide variety, so that there is always a tea that adapts to the tastes of each of the people who visit our online store.

To achieve this, the first and most important step is to choose the best raw material . For this reason, we spend a lot of time on this first phase. This being the case, the origin of our raw materials is always from those reference places.

Precisely, the Chinese region of Yunnan is one of those places and Yunnan Imperial black tea, as its name indicates, has been cultivated in this region , where the tea fields are located at altitudes of between 1200 and 2000 meters, with average annual temperatures of 12º to 23º, making this place ideal for growing teas like this one, with large leaves and golden needles. The result? A pleasure for the most demanding palates.

With a very different flavor from the rest of the black teas you have tried , it is characterized by its softness and sweetness , at the same time that it has notes that are reminiscent of spices and leaving smoky notes at the same time. This makes it ideal to take during meals, as a pairing, especially with white fish.

The color of its infusion is also striking, since it is a coppery red, with bright tones. Its honey aroma also stands out. I recommend taking it alone, without sugar or milk, so that you can enjoy it in all its splendor.
