Hunan Gold

Adagio Teas – Hunan Gold Tea

Adagio Teas Hunan Gold is a sweet and dry tea which leaves a color similar to its namesake. A complex and high-quality green tea for the connoisseur.

The large twisted “yellow tea” leaves brew to a lovely golden yellow color. It has soft, airy notes and a dry, crisp, fruity character reminiscent of a well-made tippy Darjeeling, but a bit more mellow. Lingering floral notes whisper in the finish.

The odd-ball out, Hunan Gold is something between a black and a green tea, so some distributors like to call this variety a “yellow” tea. Regardless of the denotation, this will make a quality brew that tea lovers of all kinds should enjoy. Try adding some honey or even a little milk for a splash of color and immune boosting qualities.

Brewing Suggestions:

To get the most flavor out of your gourmet tea and delight all the guests at your tea ceremony, bring clean water to 180 degrees Fahrenheit (82 degrees Celsius) and steep one teaspoon of the golden leaves for five minutes.

Fresh From Origin
Gold is a precious metal known for its value and resiliency. For this reason, it is often used for wedding rings and is the gift associated with fifty-year wedding anniversaries. The term “gold standard” even refers to monetary systems where the value of money is directly tied to its value in relation to gold. Though the gold standard is no longer widely used economically, the term is still used to describe products or services of high quality. If you’re looking for that in a tea, look no further than our precious Hunan Gold.
