Da Jin Zhen Wang

Made in early spring from select large tea buds densely covered with golden-orange fuzz, this tea is known as "Royal Big Golden Needles" (Chinese: 大金针王).

The rich flavor and bright aroma of the Golden Needles are achieved through the high quality of selected raw materials, the unique characteristics of the Jinggu Da Bai Cha cultivar, and the terroir of the harvest area. Notably, the tea undergoes a special processing technique: the final drying is done at low temperatures to fully release and preserve the aroma of the tea leaves.

Aroma: bright and rich, with berry, smoky, and strawberry notes.

Flavor: juicy, sweet, and strong. A velvety, fruity-berry aftertaste.

Effects: refreshing and warming, providing strength and energy.

Harvest: first flush, spring 2025

Brewing instructions: use a porcelain gaiwan to maximize the aroma. For a pronounced, full-bodied flavor, opt for an Yixing clay teapot. Preheat the teaware well. Use boiling water. For infusion, take 5-6 grams per 100 ml of teaware. For steeping, use 4 grams of tea per 250 ml of teaware.
