Freshly harvested in the early spring of 2026 from the renowned Fengqing tea region in Yunnan Province, China, this Da Jin Zhen (Giant Golden Needle) is crafted entirely from pure spring buds. Unlike traditional Dian Hong black teas, it undergoes a lighter fermentation process, creating a truly unique and refined tea experience.
As a prestigious member of the Golden Needle category, its name reflects the striking, elongated shape of the leaves.
