About this tea

Golden Snail Dianhong uses tender spring buds and young leaves from Fengqing, rolled into compact spirals. The coils open gradually across the first few infusions. A glass gaiwan or teapot lets you watch them unfurl. Weigh the leaves rather than judging by volume: the compact shape takes up less space than a needle-shaped black tea.

Tasting notes

Baked sweet potato, caramel, honey and warm grain. A full, rounded body with a sweet finish; clear amber-red liquor.

Brewing guide

Gongfu

  • Tea / water: 5–7g / 100ml
  • Temperature: 90–95°C
  • First infusion: 10–15 seconds
  • Following infusions: Increase gradually as the flavor softens; drain completely each time.

Mug or teapot

3–4g / 250ml at 90–95°C. Start with 2–2.5 minutes, then adjust to taste.

Cold brew

5–6g / 500ml cold water. Refrigerate for 10–12 hours, then strain.

Keep the first infusion short as the coils open. Avoid adding extra leaves just because the dry spirals look compact.

Storage

Reseal after each use. Keep in a cool, dry, dark place, away from moisture and strong odors. Use the supplied resealable packaging or an airtight tea container.

Packaging & use

Scan the QR code on the label for tea details and brewing instructions.

Session estimates use a fresh portion of dry tea each time. Each portion can be infused repeatedly.

Customer photo review of Fengqing Golden Snail Dianhong | Curled Buds, Explosive Aroma

After visiting China, I discovered the pleasure of drinking Chinese tea. As a beginner I probably don't perfectly respect the times and codes to prepare the tea, but I'm improving :) This tea was nice, not too strong, with differents taste with each brew. Thanks for the gifts with the order, it's appreciated. Bye bye from France.
