Due to the renewed interest in black teas in China, this large-leafed tea with plentiful gold tips from Fujian province has been hand rolled into tiny balls in the classic gunpowder style. It brews a chestnut-colored liquor with a bold flavor profile similar to higher-priced black teas. Its balanced savoriness and gratifying finish with little to no acerbity would make it a good candidate for English-style tea drinkers. Use 1 teaspoon dried leaf (3-4g) per 6-ounce cup of spring water heated to just below boiling (212°). Pour hot water over leaves and steep 4 minutes.
