Big leafed black Chinese tea from a cross-breeding between Assam- and Shui Xian tea plants, quite high quality. It has been produced since 1953 around the city of Yingde in central Guangdong (Canton) and it s more and more rarely produced, in the last years, however, in wonderful qualities. It combines the strongly malty note of the Assam black tea with the mellow and sweetish notes of a Shui Xian Oolong.

Weitere Schwarztees chinesischer Art Some other types of black tea of the Chinese style were developed towards the end of the 19th century in various places situated in south-east China, mostly following the examples of the Qi Hong (Keemun Black Tea) or the Min Hong Gong Fu, the Fujian Gong Fu Black Tea. It is also at this time that the production of tea in Georgia began, also in the manner of Keemun-style black tea. In more contemporary times, some of the countries neighbouring China began to produce black tea. They are produced using leaves of Xiao Ye Zhong tea plants, which is the Small Leaf Varietal or camellia sinensis var. sinensis, rarely also from Da Ye Zhong (large leaf varietal or camellia sinensis var. assamica). They are mellow to the palate, moderately strong and quite aromatic.
