Eastern Beauty Black Tea
The Pinnacle of Tea Luxury and Heritage
Eastern Beauty Black Tea is more than a drink — it’s an experience, a celebration of tradition, and a testament to the art of tea-making. Crafted from the renowned YingHong No. 9 cultivar (英红9号), this tea represents the culmination of decades of meticulous research and cultivation in Yingde, Guangdong. This varietal, with its rich history and refined profile, has earned a place in the hearts of tea connoisseurs and dignitaries alike, including Queen Elizabeth II and President Vladimir Putin (Teavivre , China Tea Guru).
Rare Origins and Exclusive Craftsmanship
YingHong No. 9, developed in the mid-20th century, was selected as the finest among 22 clonal lines due to its exceptional flavor and quality. Known for its golden-tipped leaves and bright red liquor, this tea is celebrated for its elegant floral aroma, mellow sweetness, and smooth, tender mouthfeel (Teavivre, Lastea, China Tea Guru).
The rarity of Eastern Beauty Black Tea is accentuated by its exclusive autumn harvest. During this fleeting season, the tea leaves mature under ideal conditions, imbibing the crisp air and rich nutrients of the fertile soil. This careful timing enhances the tea’s complexity, ensuring every cup delivers the richness and depth of a fine vintage wine. (China Tea Guru)
Production
Yinghong No. 9 undergoes meticulous processing:
- Handpicking: Only tender, uniform leaves (one bud with two to three leaves) are selected.
- Withering and Rolling: Careful temperature control ensures optimal withering, while rolling is performed multiple times to achieve the desired shape and texture.
- Fermentation and Drying: The tea is lightly fermented to preserve its freshness and floral qualities, followed by precise drying to lock in flavor (China Tea Guru).
A Symphony of Flavor
The artistry of traditional YingHong No. 9 processing unlocks the full potential of the leaves. Handpicked with precision, each bud and leaf undergoes withering, rolling, fermentation, and drying at controlled temperatures. The result is a refined amber liquor that enchants the senses with:
- Aroma: Lush floral fragrances with hints of caramelized peach.
- Taste: Layers of wild honey, cocoa, and a lingering sweetness reminiscent of fine desserts.
- Appearance: Radiant golden tips, signaling the highest quality.
A Legacy of Prestige
Yinghong No. 9 was initially crafted to cater to Western tastes, with state leaders and even foreign dignitaries appreciating its quality. It has been served to notable figures such as Queen Elizabeth II 👑 and President Vladimir Putin, earning international acclaim during its golden era (Lastea).
As one of China’s finest black teas, YingHong No. 9 has played a vital role in showcasing Chinese tea craftsmanship on the global stage. It stands as a symbol of elegance, sophistication, and artisanal excellence (Teavivre, Lastea, China Tea Guru).
This tea is often likened to fine wine due to its rarity, heritage, and craftsmanship.
