Sourced from the ancient tea forests of Fengqing, Yunnan, this is not merely a cup of tea—it is the pinnacle of the 2026 spring harvest, a fleeting moment of perfection sealed within a tiny, artisanal tower.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eA scarce and exquisite type of red tea called Dian Hong Ta, or translated as Dian Hong Golden Pagoda. This elite variety is produced as small, tied, rounded brown cones. The raw materials for the Red Pagoda were leaves of trees grown on high-mountain plantations in the ecologically clean area “Palace of the Moon”, where experienced harvesters pluck the juiciest shoots and tender leaves from every branch that has just blossomed. After this, workers carefully manually tie half-raw tea leaves and buds into the correct beautiful shape of a cone-shaped bundle, which in its appearance is a bit reminiscent of Chinese pagodas. What is also interesting is that during the brewing process, such a pagoda gradually begins to bloom into a kind of beautiful tea flower.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe aroma of Dian Hong Golden Pagoda is tea-woody, with the right tannic and herbal-caramel shades with an admixture of oak bark and several types of dried fruits. During the brewing process, this tea smells quite pleasant - honey and fruity nuances, with the presence of chocolate and nut shades. The taste of brewed Red Pagoda is relatively dense, slightly sweet with hints of tartness and iris. The aftertaste of this tea is usually sweetish and quite long, slightly tart. Its color is amber-red, quite rich.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eDian Hong Golden Pagoda, as a type of black tea, has won the favor of tea lovers for its exquisite handmade and unique shape. After the tea leaves are combed into a pagoda shape, they are carefully tied with cotton thread to form a pagoda shape with tight strands and plump buds, with a golden color and prominent golden hairs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eWhen steeped, the Bao Ta Tea Yunnan Black Tea slowly expands, releasing a cascade of whole leaves that resemble a blooming flower. The liquor is a luminous amber-gold, offering a bouquet that defines the terroir of the region: rich notes of malted barley, dried longan, and the distinct, comforting sweetness of roasted sweet potato, finished with a lingering honeyed smoothness that requires no sugar or milk.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eOften referred to as Dian Hong Black Pagoda Chinese Black Tea, this variety is celebrated for its visual elegance and depth of flavor. Each \"pagoda\" is a bundle of single-origin, golden-tipped buds, plucked by hand in the misty highlands of Yunnan during the first flush of Spring 2026. Because the winter rains were followed by a season of ideal sun exposure, this year’s harvest yields an exceptionally high concentration of aromatic oils and natural sweetness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eUnlike mass-produced broken-leaf teas, this Yunnan Honey Sweet Pagoda Black Tea is crafted for the connoisseur who values purity. There are no added flavors, no artificial aromas—only the natural \"feng tang\" (honey sweetness) inherent to the ancient Da Ye Zhong (large-leaf) varietal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhy This 2026 Harvest Stands Apart\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2026 growing season in Fengqing was exceptional. A cool, dry winter allowed the ancient tea trees to enter a deep dormancy, concentrating their nutrients. The arrival of spring brought moderate temperatures and misty mornings, allowing the buds to mature slowly. This natural pacing results in a Dian Hong Yunnan Black Tea that is significantly smoother and more complex than standard offerings, with a thicker mouthfeel (body) and a finish that leaves a cooling, sweet sensation on the palate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow to brew Dian Hong Golden Pagoda correctly?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo do this, you need to take a glass teapot or glass cup, in which you can observe the process of its opening - this is a very interesting action.\u003cbr\u003eJust before brewing the pagoda, it makes sense to rinse it with boiling water - this will prepare it for brewing. You should use 1 piece for about 200 ml of boiling water. The very first infusion lasts 40-50 seconds, after which the finished brew should be completely poured. All subsequent brews can be carried out a little longer than the previous ones - about 50-70 s. Thus, Pagoda can be brewed 3-5 times, while it gradually changes aroma and taste (opening and closing, so to speak).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MoriMa Tea","offers":[{"title":"Sample 10g","offer_id":12468276363337,"sku":"BT-JSBT-2","price":5.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50g","offer_id":12468276396105,"sku":"BT-JSBT-2","price":22.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100g","offer_id":12468276428873,"sku":"BT-JSBT-2","price":39.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g","offer_id":12468276461641,"sku":"BT-JSBT-2","price":66.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2323\/3605\/files\/2026_Pre-Qingming_Spring_Tea_Dianhong_Pagoda.jpg?v=1774161705","url":"https:\/\/www.morimatea.com\/it\/products\/dian-hong-golden-pagoda-yunnan-red-tea","provider":"Authentic Chinese tea | Born for You, Burn for MMT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
