Golden Dragon Yellow Tea – Floral, Buttery Chinese Yellow TeaOur Golden Dragon Yellow Tea is a fine Chinese tea from one of the rarest tea categories in the world. True yellow tea is produced only in China and is prepared much like green tea — but during processing, the leaves are kept damp and allowed to gently oxidize. This extended step reduces astringency and gives the finished tea a warm golden hue and its own unique flavor. Artisans nickname this tea "10-degree yellow tea, " as it undergoes a minimal oxidation of around 10%. This gentle process gives Golden Dragon its smooth, mellow body and delicate floral character. Tasting Notes
Why You'll Love ItGolden Dragon offers the freshness of green tea and the smooth, floral depth of oolong in one rare and special cup. It's gentle, never grassy or bitter, and endlessly enjoyable — a wonderful discovery for curious tea lovers.
How to EnjoyEnjoy it plain to appreciate its floral, buttery character, and re-steep the leaves for several infusions. It pairs well with light meals and pastries.

A little steeping tipLet just-boiled water cool for a minute or two — water that’s too hot can turn delicate leaves bitter. Good leaves give a lovely second cup, too.
A fresh way to enjoy itSweeten while the tea is still hot so it dissolves. For a smoother, mellower glass, try cold brew: leaves in cold water in the fridge for 6–8 hours.
