Product description
Zunyi has a long history in tea cultivation going as far back as the Tea Horse Road and the ancient Yelang Kingdom. High elevation in a low latitude region has blessed it with a cool and humid climate which is suitable for tea planting. In the “Tea Classics”, Lu Yu (733 – 804 AD), listed Zunyi (then called Bozhou) as one of the six famed tea producing regions which were used as tribute to the Emperor.
The development of the Zunyi black tea is said to have started since 1840 and completed only in 2008. Influenced by Zhejiang University when they shifted to Zunyi during the wars in 1940s and incorporating modern tea processing methods from Fujian Gongfu black tea. Since then, Zunyi Black tea has won Gold Awards at both Shanghai and Guangzhou Tea Expo. In 2017, it was made a China Product of Honor and protected by geographical indication with strict quality controls.
Packed in Drip Bags for convenience and space for tea leaves to unfurl and extract. Also available in loose tea leaf packs.
