Yunnan black tea (Dian Hong)

Dian Hong (滇红)is a Yunnan black tea from Xigui in southwest China, made from leaves picked off trees around 80 years old. "Dian Hong" literally means "Yunnan Red" — in China, what we call black tea is actually called red tea, named after the colour of the brew rather than the leaf.

This tea is sweet, smooth, and naturally malty, with gentle notes of wood and honey. There's no astringency or bitterness — it's one of the most forgiving black teas we carry. Even if you steep it a bit longer than intended, it stays gentle. Customers who switch from English Breakfast or other blended black teas often notice the difference straight away: no need for milk or sugar to make it comfortable to drink.

The leaves are pesticide-free and hand-picked from mature arbour trees, which tend to produce tea with more body and natural sweetness than younger plantation bushes. Our 2025 spring harvest has that same clean sweetness as previous years, with a bit more body.

Brewing guide

Western style: Use 2g per 250ml with 90°C water. Steep 3 minutes. Good for 2 infusions.

Gongfu style: Use 4g per 120ml gaiwan or teapot. Pre-warm the vessel. Brew with 90°C water, 20 seconds for the first infusion. You can get up to 10 infusions — the sweetness really builds through the middle steeps. If you have a gaiwan, this is a good tea to use it with.

About Yunnan black tea

Yunnan province is home to some of the oldest tea trees in the world. Dian Hong uses leaves from these mature trees, which produce teas with more body and natural sweetness than younger plantation tea. It's been a staple in Chinese tea culture for decades, though it's still relatively unknown in Australia compared to Indian or Sri Lankan black teas. Browse our full black tea collection for more options, or see our morning tea picks — all our black teas work well as a morning cup.

Joanne's tip

One of our Tea Bar regulars described it as "nice for a chat" — and that's exactly right. It's the kind of easy, comforting tea you can sit with for a while without thinking too much about timing or temperature. If you're curious about how Yunnan black teas differ from each other, grab a sample of this ($8) alongside our Golden Tips ($8) and compare them — Dian Hong gives you malt and body, Golden Tips gives you florals and sweetness.

A Game-Changer for My 11-Year-Old's Programming Journey!
I recently purchased this amazing product for my 11-year-old son, and I must say, it has been an absolute game-changer in his programming journey! From the moment he unwrapped it, he was captivated by its sleek design. The comprehensive programming guide included was incredibly helpful, providing step-by-step instructions that even a beginner like my son could easily follow. What truly impressed me was how quickly my son grasped the concepts of coding using this. The interactive features and engaging challenges kept him motivated and eager to learn more. It's incredible to witness his growth and confidence. As a parent, I appreciate the emphasis on creativity and problem-solving that this book encourages. It goes beyond mere coding exercises and truly nurtures my son's critical thinking abilities. The possibilities seem endless, and I can't wait to see where his programming journey takes him next! In conclusion, if you're looking for a top-notch programming tool for your child, look no further. This product has exceeded my expectations in every way. It has ignited a passion for coding in my 11-year-old son and has become an invaluable asset in his educational development. I wholeheartedly recommend it to parents seeking to introduce their children to the world of programming.

Useful in class and for personal use
Format: Paperback
We are learning python in my class and this book is so helpful to practice outside of class. I had started using it before class started because I didn’t know we would be learning python I just bought it because python is a popular programming language and I should learn it and it’s very simple to follow. The digital assets help u download the necessary tools used in the book. I do find the code to be a little confusing because I’m used to SQL and R. Python is a little different but the book makes it easy to learn and has you implementing what you learned into a project so it’s very useful. Get this book!
