Dian Hong Jin Luo Golden Snail from Yunnan Province of China is an excellent medium strength and balanced black tea that produced by rolling tea buds into small golden coils, or snail shapes.

Dian Hong, literally Yunnan Red, refers to the origin and type of tea (red according to Chinese tea classification). Jin Luo (金螺), literally Golden Snail, refers to the style of this tea and the way it is shaped into small coils, similarly to the famous Bi Luo Chun (Green Snail Spring) green tea.

Dian Hong Jin Luo Golden Snail is processed from hand plucked one leaf and one bud leaves of the Yunnan Large Leaf cultivar that is also used to make the numerous pu-erhs of the region. The leaves are hand rolled during the production process into small coils or snails and you can see plenty of these golden coils in the finished product. Like other Dian Hong teas, this Jin Luo Golden Snail can benefit from short term storage and maturation to further develop the flavours. Or you can enjoy it straight away!

The dark amber liquor has a savory scent of rye and soy. The taste is sweet and malty, like a sweet bread, with notes of cocoa and molasses.

What the Great Taste judges thought: “A rich, full mouth feel. There are bakey, biscuitty notes, and also liquorice, with great sweetness. It’s mouthfilling and has wonderful Yunnan character.”

We also offer an exquisite ‘pure-bud’ version, a supreme Dian Hong Jin Luo Golden Snail King.

A perfect black tea to have without milk as it’s very smooth and does not have any astringency. Of course, it can always be brewed stronger by steeping the leaves for 5+ minutes to make a particularly strong tea that could take a dash of milk if you are so inclined.
