Chinese Black Teas

How many kinds of black teas are there in China?



Here is a Japanese website that breaks down Chinese teas by province. You'll need the language character set or other means to see the Chinese characters but the pinyin is readable.

Chinese teas are like particle physics. The more you look the more you see. I'm putting together a list of Wuyi teas for a screen dump. I wonder if some description like 'northern Fujian' would be another moniker for the Wuyi mountains?

Hey Jim,

Let me re-work that for you...

If it's a big deal don't worry about it otherwise Thanks. If somebody tells me Huang Jin Gui taste like sweet scented Osmanthus it does otherwise it doesn't. I took some Indian friends to an Asian grocery with a booth that serves Boba after a wonderful eggplant curry. Those black eyeballs haunted me all night because we passed around the iced smoothie and hot milk concoctions.
