BLACK TEA: Imperial Mojiang Golden Bud, China

Imperial Mojiang Golden Bud - new 2025 harvest
Black tea, China

Flavour: sun-dried hay, caramelised sugar, dark chocolate ~ medium-bodied
The freshest, soft, downy leaf buds are harvested by hand before they unfurl and then carefully processed to create this stunning tea. 

The leaves infuse into a glowing, copper-coloured liquor that releases a sweet, toffee-like aroma. The infusion is medium in body with a slightly dry mouthfeel and notes of sun-warmed hay, caramelised sugar, dark chocolate and nutmeg.

Harvested from late February to early March 2025 from the Yunkang #100 cultivar of Camellia Sinensis var. Assamica in the Mojiang district of Yunnan province, China.

Infusions: specialty tea leaves can all be steeped at least twice, and often more, so each 3 gram serve (150 mls - a standard teacup size), will give you two cups ('infusions') if you steep the leaves twice. On the back of your pouch under 'Steep', you can find the number of infusions for your tea.

If you infuse your leaves at least twice, your pouch will give you the following cups of tea (or more if you infuse your leaves more times):

50 grams - 33 cups
100 grams - 66 cups
200 grams - 133 cups
