Zhenghe Congou ranks first among the 'Three Famous Fujian Black Teas'. This premium 2025 spring tea is hand-picked from the Zhenghe Dabai tea cultivar grown at elevations of 800–1000 m in Zhenghe County. After three consecutive sunny days following the Spring Equinox, the leaves are hand-plucked one bud and one leaf. With 22.3% tea polyphenols, 4.0% amino acids, and a polyphenol-to-amino-acid ratio of 5.6, the foundation is laid for a mellow and non-astringent flavor. The tea undergoes 6 hours of natural indoor withering, light rolling, 100 minutes of controlled fermentation at 29°C, and sufficient medium-temperature drying, achieving a moisture content ≤4.2%. GC-MS testing reveals 1.31 mg/g linalool and 0.61 mg/g phenylethyl alcohol, delivering a complex aroma of rose, honey, and ripe fruit; tea theaflavins at 1.10% and thearubigins at 10.3% (GB/T 30483) produce a bright orange-red liquor with a prominent golden rim. Caffeine content is about 31 mg/200 ml, offering gentle stimulation; water extractables at 47% allow for 8–9 infusions. Double-layer sealed in aluminum foil bag and tin canister, the aroma remains unchanged for 24 months under ambient, light-protected storage. SGS tested for 500 pesticide residues—none detected. Full traceability with SC certification. Want to experience the sweet floral aroma of this centuries-old Congou black tea for the price of a cup of milk tea? This Zhenghe Congou is your answer.
