High-grade Chinese black tea from northern Fujian province. The name translates to "Black Gold" (黑金) and indicates the abundance of tender, small, golden-colored tea buds in the raw material. These buds are responsible for the noble, bright flavor.
Black Gold is made using the "sweetened tea" technology, which involves warming the tea with powdered sugar. This process gives it an appearance similar to Jin Jun Mei and adds extra sweetness to the flavor and aroma.
Aroma: rich, with notes of baked fruits and chocolate.
Flavor: soft, coffee-chocolatey, sweet-caramel, with fruity undertones. The infusion is thick, oily, and dense.
Effect: the tea has a warming and slightly relaxing effect, while also clarifying thoughts and enhancing concentration. It is perfect for leisurely and mindful tea drinking.
Harvest: 2024, Fujian province, China.
Brewing instructions: for a maximally sweet and soft flavor, use slightly cooled water at 85-90 °C instead of boiling water. If using boiling water, a delicate bitterness will appear, which might not be to everyone's taste, but it’s a personal choice. Thoroughly warm the teaware. For infusion, use 5 grams per 100 ml of teaware. For steeping, use 4 grams per 250 ml of teaware. First infusion time: 5 seconds. Steeping time: 4 minutes. Enjoy your tea sessions!

im very satisfied with the cup, 😊 thanks
I bought Rou Gui Gao Shan at Tea Gallery, and it pleasantly surprised me with how it evolves over multiple infusions. By the third brew, the aroma becomes fuller and deeper, revealing a rich body with gentle sweetness, subtle berry notes, and light woody undertones. The classic Rou Gui profile—often associated with cinnamon-like spice, warm minerality, and a distinctive “rock” character (yan yun)—is present here as well, but in a smooth and well-balanced way. The aftertaste is long, with a refined balance between warmth and freshness. It’s the kind of tea that truly shines over extended sessions—perfect for long, relaxed evenings in good company.
This tea is honestly GOATed. We call it "endless / infinite tea", just because of HOW MUCH you can extract from it... With the right conditions and not too hot of a water, we've been genuinely drinking it for hours, and I feel like we never fully finished it... definitely worth it's money
Прекрасный чай. Всем советую заглянуть в этот магазинчик.
Bought it as a gift to my dear friend, and he’s now the happiest man on earth. He rates it as “10 out of 5” and “every day I use it, and every day I’m happy”
Genuinely one of the best red teas I’ve ever tried. The texture, the aroma and the flavour is just outstanding. It is visually pleasing, lasts for many infusions, and a bit expensive
Очень приятный вкус, тонкий аромат, мягкое расслабление без сонливости
