Wild Red Yunnan Old Trees Tea

Wild Red Yunnan Old Trees Tea is a premium Chinese red tea (Hong Cha 红茶) sourced from ancient wild-growing tea trees in the untamed landscapes of Yunnan Province. Hand-plucked in spring, these venerable trees — growing freely in mountain forests far from cultivation — produce leaves of exceptional depth, richness, and natural complexity.

Origin & Character

Origin: Yunnan Province, China  |  Type: Red tea (Hong Cha 红茶)
Source: Ancient wild-growing trees  |  Harvest: Spring, hand-plucked
Grade: Premium loose leaf

Wild tea trees from Yunnan grow their own deep root systems across decades, drawing minerals and nutrients from mountain soil — creating a richer, more layered flavour profile than cultivated varieties. This tea is particularly well-suited to Gongfu brewing, where each successive infusion reveals new dimensions of the ancient terroir.

Tasting Notes

• Infusion: Deep reddish-amber, warm and clear.
• Aroma: Earthy and woody — sweet honey undertones and a hint of wild mountain herbs.
• Flavour: Bold and robust — rich earth, dark honey, dried fruit, and subtle spice.
• Aftertaste: Long and warming, with a gentle sweetness that lingers.
