The Art of Crafting Jin Kongque Golden Peacock Tea

No chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides are used in the production of our teas. Click here to learn more about our commitment to sustainability and fair trade practices.

The production of Jin Kongque Golden Peacock Chinese Black Tea begins with the meticulous handpicking of tender buds and young leaves from Yunnan’s high-altitude tea gardens. Harvested in the early morning to ensure peak freshness, the leaves are carefully withered to reduce moisture while preserving their natural sweetness.

Skilled tea farmers then roll the leaves to release their essential oils, which create the tea’s signature malty and floral aroma. The leaves are oxidized under carefully monitored conditions to develop their striking golden hue and rich flavor. Finally, the tea is dried to perfection, locking in its smooth, layered taste. Every batch of Jin Kongque reflects the expertise of Yunnan’s artisans, blending tradition and innovation seamlessly. Learn more about our dedication to authentic tea-making on our About Us page.
