Yingde Black Tea is the particular black tea produced and processed in Yingde County, Qingyuan Prefecture, in central Guangdong Province in southeastern China. First processed mechanically in 1959,[1] its reputation has allowed much of the tea to be exported. Some prestige varieties are produced, which generally resemble leaf oolong.
The tea should have a cocoa-like aroma and, like most Chinese black teas, a sweet aftertaste.[2]
