The golden tips contribute exceptional sweetness, smooth texture, and elegant character to the tea.

Created in 1939, Dian Hong quickly gained international recognition for its distinctive golden appearance, smooth malty character, and natural honey-like sweetness. The name "Dian" refers to Yunnan Province, while "hong" means red (the Chinese term for black tea).
