Yunnan

An extravagant China Yunnan tea (also called dian hong tea). Classified as a golden flowery orange pekoe (GFOP) it has an exquisite, mildly smouldering, sweet taste and a brassy orange colour.

Yunnan tea is named after the Chinese province of Yunnan. It is distinguished from other Chinese black teas by the amount of fine leaf buds, or "golden tips", present in the dried tea.
