Black Tea from China
The most famous black teas from China, including Dian Hong, Keemun, Lapsang Souchong and Yingde Hongcha.
Dian Hong Black Tea
Dian Hong (滇紅茶) black tea from Yunnan is widely renowned for its full-bodied, rich, slightly malty flavour. Our range includes high-quality organic Dian Hong sourced directly from a leading tea farm located 1500m above sea level in Pu Erh, Yunnan.
Keemun Black Tea
Keemun 祁門紅茶 is one of China’s most popular teas, known for its distinctive flavour profile featuring a tart sweetness, fruity plum notes, and a subtle hint of pine. We offer a Master Keemun crafted in the Gong Fu style, the highest level of traditional artisanal tea-making, sourced directly from its original terroir in Anhui. We also have an excellent everyday organic Keemun, sourced directly from a small farm in the Huangshan mountains.
Lapsang Souchong Black Tea
We offer two exceptionally high-quality expressions of the world’s first black tea which, unlike many commercially available Lapsang Souchong teas, are not dominated by heavy smoke. Alongside a rich, fruit-forward Lapsang Souchong made from a cultivar growing wild in the region (Wild), we present a highly elegant Lapsang sourced directly from the top terroir of the Wuyi Mountains, featuring beautifully caramelised, subtly floral notes (Traditional).
Yingde Hongcha
From Yingde Town in Guangdon Province, Yingde Hongcha is one of China's most prestigious black teas, famed for its elegant leaf shape and vibrant ruby red brew, with notes of cocoa and honey. Our tea is made from the particularly popular Yingdehong No.9 cultivar.
