Jin Jun Mei originated from the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian province, which is renowned for its tea production. It was first developed in the early 21st century by a tea master named Jiang Yuanxun. Jiang wanted to create a premium black tea that could rival the famous Lapsang Souchong tea from the same region.

What sets Jin Jun Mei apart is its intricate production process and the careful selection of tea leaves. The tea is made from young buds that are picked in the early spring, usually around late March or early April. These buds are covered in fine golden hairs, which contribute to the tea's name "Jin Jun Mei," meaning "Golden Beautiful Eyebrow" in Chinese.

The processing of Jin Jun Mei involves several steps. After plucking, the buds undergo withering, during which they are spread out and left to dry for a few hours. This is followed by a process known as rolling, where the leaves are gently rolled to shape them and release their flavor. The rolled leaves are then fermented, oxidized, and finally roasted to enhance their aroma and taste.

The resulting Jin Jun Mei tea leaves are slender and tightly curled, with a dark color and a distinct golden sheen. When brewed, the tea produces a rich amber liquor with a sweet and floral aroma. It has a smooth and velvety texture with complex flavors that can include notes of caramel, chocolate, honey, and even a hint of smokiness reminiscent of Lapsang Souchong.

Due to its meticulous production process and the limited availability of the young tea buds, Jin Jun Mei is considered a luxury tea and is often quite expensive. It is highly sought after by tea connoisseurs and is frequently given as a gift or enjoyed on special occasions. The tea is best brewed at lower temperatures and can be steeped multiple times, with each infusion revealing new layers of flavor.

Jin Jun Mei represents the artistry and craftsmanship of Chinese tea production, and its delicate yet robust characteristics have earned it a place among the finest black teas in the world.
