This premium Yunnan Golden Tip black tea is a truly magnificent tippy Yunnan with characteristic delicacy and sweetness. The flavour becomes maltier and more layered as it cools. This Yunnan Gold Tip imparts a sense of opulent indulgence. Simply rounded and divine, pure heaven in a cup.

Good selection, excellent service

I am pleased to have discovered The China Teapot with whom I have just placed my second order. It is not cheap but the quality of the tea is high and the service is good. I will certainly use them again.

My favorite black

This black is my favorite so far. When I am in a black tea mood I take this one. Love their small bonus tea with every order. Support small businesses, do not go for supermarket tea
