This is a tippy picked lightly roasted Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong that was picked during the first flush of spring.  After several months of roasting and resting this lovely tea has developed a thick sweet taste with a noticeable orchid aroma.  It's delightful to experience this complex and delicious black tea.

Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong is a long time favorite varietal from Fujian province that's grown in and around the Wu Yi Mountain area.  Wu Yi Mountain area is the home to Rock Oolongs like Da Hong Pao and Shui Xian and provides the perfect conditions for black tea production as well.

Reviews

Unbeatable value

"Sweet and fragrant. I was getting orchid aroma until the 6th steep. Liked this one much more than other teas from the Chinese Black Teas sampler that were twice the price."

Christopher S. (5/5)

Sweet, floral, and lovely

"What a beautiful tea! Aromas of honey, malt, flowers… on the palatte it has a touch of toast, a sweet middle, and a sweet and floral finish. It’s really intense and lovely. No bitterness whatsoever. Just a unique and beautiful treat,"

Adam T. (4/5)

Excellent products at fair prices.

"I was thrilled with all of the teas I’ve tried so far. Really wonderful, varied flavors, and unlike any other teas I’ve tried before (I’ve been an avid tea drinker for 40 years). I like that Yunnan Sourcing focuses on sourcing high quality teas at fair prices, and not offering bougie packaging & sub-par teas, like many many other purveyors. I will definitely be back."

Elizabeth G. (5/5)

Very delicious

"this is a lovely black tea. Very floral and sweet, with cinnamon baking spice notes, which results in it tasting very close to homemade apple pie, though in later steeps a lime taste becomes noticeable. Very refreshing"

Q&A

How similar is the taste of this to the “Tong Mu Guan Hua Xiang Zheng Shan Xiao Zhang”? Are they similar at all or are they completely unlike each other? I’m asking generally; I do realize that no two teas are the same.
They are somewhat similar. I&#x27;d say the closest compared to others we offer.
