A popular Chinese red tea from Yunnan Province, on the territory of which the state of Dian was located in ancient times, after which the tea was named Dian Hong (滇红, Red Tea from Dian). We called it Honey for the corresponding shades in taste. Golden Eyebrows is a famous Chinese red tea from the north of Fujian Province. A fairly young, but deservedly popular variety of red tea, the history of which began in the mid-2000s.
