Yunnan Tea

Yunnan tea comes from the southwestern Chinese province of Yunnan, one of the oldest and most important tea-growing regions in the world. The region is particularly known for its black and Pu-Erh teas, which delight tea lovers all over the world thanks to their long tradition and unique production. In this text, you will learn more about the different types of tea, the special conditions of cultivation and the special character of these teas.

Teas from Yunnan

The most famous teas from Yunnan are Yunnan black tea (Dian Hong) and Pu-Erh tea . While Yunnan black tea is prized for its full-bodied and strong taste, Pu-Erh tea is characterized by its complex flavors and health benefits. Pu-Erh tea is offered as either Sheng (raw) or Shou (aged) tea, each developing its own aging process and flavor. Yunnan is also known for high-quality green teas and white teas, which also come from the tea leaves of this region.

Climate, soil and landscape

The special climatic conditions in Yunnan contribute significantly to the quality of the tea. The mountainous regions have a subtropical climate that is ideal for growing tea. The soil is rich in minerals and the high altitudes ensure slow-growing tea plants that develop more intense aromas. This combination of fertile soil, sufficient rainfall and moderate temperatures makes Yunnan a unique region for growing tea.

Character of Yunnan teas

Yunnan teas are characterized by their full body, strong aromas and a delicate sweetness. Black tea from Yunnan often has malty notes and a light fruitiness, which makes it particularly soft and pleasant on the finish. Pu-Erh tea, on the other hand, has an earthy, deep flavor that develops depending on the maturation period and is unmistakable due to its fermented character. Both teas have a remarkable depth and complexity that even experienced tea drinkers will love.

Special features of production

The production of tea in Yunnan is largely traditional and done by hand. Fermentation and maturation play an important role, especially with Pu-Erh tea. Raw Pu-Erh tea is stored for years and thus develops its characteristic depth and complexity. The artisanal processing of the leaves, often from tea trees that are hundreds of years old, underlines the exclusivity of the teas from this region.

More information about Yunnan Tea

Yunnan tea is not only known for its taste qualities, but also for its health benefits. Pu-Erh tea in particular is often valued for its digestive and cholesterol-lowering effects. The variety of teas from Yunnan offers something for every taste - from mild green teas to strong black teas to mature Pu-Erh varieties.
