Flavour

Junshan Yinzhen is a Huangcha (Yellow Tea), a category unique to China. Its fragrance blends cocoa notes with a delicate peony-like aroma and a subtle orchid undertone, reminiscent of sitting in Van Gogh’s "The Café Terrace at Night," where golden light diffuses through rich scents and a soft floral breeze brushes the heart. The liquor unfolds in three balanced stages: it begins with a green tea-like freshness and sweetness, moves into a mellow and rounded mid-palate, and finishes with a cool, lingering sweetness that glides through the throat—like strolling through a sun-kissed wheat field under the crisp, clear sky of autumn.

Brewing Recommendation

Single Cup
1. Rinse the cup with hot water.
2. Add 3g of tea to a 300ml glass.
3. Pour 85–90°C water until the cup is one-third full. Gently rinse the leaves, then discard the rinse water. Refill as needed while drinking.
4. Refill with hot water until about 1cm below the rim. Let the tea steep for 1–3 minutes before drinking.
