The principal growing regions in Yunnan are located at altitudes of 1,200 to 2,000m and have average annual temperatures between 12 and 23c.  Here high grade black and green types are produced.  The very high proportion of large, golden leaf tips gives the full sweet, spicy taste and malty, soft aftertaste to the Yunnan Imperial.  Our Yunnan Imperial is an excellent top quality tea.  The leaf is dark matt and green and contains many bronze coloured tips.  The infusion is strong and dark.
