Gong Fu Tea

Bi Luo Chun “Black Gold” Black Tea

Notes: Quick steeping oxidized version of Bi Luo Chun green tea with the same 1 bud, 1 leaf picking curled into a flat snail shape.  The aroma is fruity, creamy, and intense.  The taste is dominated by a warming creamy syrup feeling.  It just makes you feel warm all over. This tea is not hard to make as long as you have a light touch. Tea: 5g Water: 5oz., 190° Steep: 1, 2, 3, 4 Time: 10, 10, 10, 10 sec. Maker’s Notes: This lovely tea is a classic Yunnan black tea grown in Ning'er county of Simao.  This has been picked as 1 leaf to 1 bud sets and processed carefully by rolling the tea into pellets.  Like most Yunnan black teas, the tea benefits from short-term aging and develops a malty sweet taste and lovely fragrance with a hint of chocolate and flowers.
