Bulang Shan Terrior

Bottomless Peat is a hong cha from Bulang Shan in Yunnan Province. It most prominently recalls the peat-smoked nuances of Islay Whisky (hence, the name). Harvested from tall trees of the large leaf variety, it maintains a bold character and soft, well-oiled mouthfeel across seemingly endless infusions. For those just beginning their journey into Dianhong, take your first step here.

Dianhong

Dian - 滇 references the former Dian Kingdom that existed until roughly 109 BC. Hong - 紅 refers to the color of the brewed liquor and, by extension, the category of tea to which these leaves belong (Hong Cha).
