Notes#

Manufacture and character#

Withering, rolling, oxidation and drying are followed by refining, including sorting, blending and a final firing. The agricultural trade-promotion account describes dark, lustrous strips with visible down and floral, fruity or candied-orange aromas. These are style descriptions, not a fixed flavour shared by every lot.

A regional tea name#

Chuanhong names a Sichuan black-tea tradition, not a single factory or cultivar. Gongfu here concerns the careful manufacture of the tea. It does not specify a brewing method. The tea has its own provincial product standard, DB51/T 878–2022.
