Golden Eyebrow (Jin Jun Mei)- Premium Red Tea

A delightful bud only high quality hong cha (red tea, but what we call black tea in the west) from the Wuyi Mountains.

Golden Eyebrow, aka Jin Jun Mei, is a rich and downy bud tea that offers a medium body and a soft, malty profile with delightful notes of lychee and rose. We love this tea for calm, focused energy. The name Jin Jun Mei translates to Golden Steed Eyebrows, reflecting the slender and twisted appearance of the buds. This recent arrival of competition grade tea was carefully selected from spring leaf buds from the Fu Yun #6 cultivar and make this Wuyishan Black Tea a labor-intensive and demanding tea to produce. Grown at approx. 900 meters in the ecological preserve in the Wuyi Mountains, where pesticides and chemicals are prohibited, this tea maintains the natural terroir of the mountains, ensuring the legacy of Wuyishan tea. With its vibrant, juicy energy and intentional flavor profile, Jin Jun Mei is an outstanding afternoon tea that pairs wonderfully with light pastries, dark chocolate, mild cheeses, and savory dishes such as roasted poultry or seafood.
