Traditional concept of standard Yunnan Black Tea processing generally used by tea factories.
Light to medium oxidation , rolling and then heat processing for the final fixation
in order to promote the sweet taste and preserve fruity notes same time.

Dark oxidized black tea usually comes with medium to dark roast called " ti xiang " or " gao xiang "
which means - elevated aroma. The high temperature roast at the end of the processing
helps to promote the sweetness with chocolate notes
with touch of roasted nuts ( reflecting actual roast ) .
This concept is commonly used by Fujian black tea producers but it is also implemented in
Yunnan Black tea production , as it's also applied to less oxidised tea leaf.
Sun dried black tea , known as Shai Hong , is simply processed with light oxidation ,
rolling and dying on the sun ( directly or in the drying glass house ) .
The initial flavour spectrum is rather sour , due to not complete fixation
( not like it's common for dark roasted black tea ) whcih in time is transforming
into the jam fruity sweet notes. Therefore shaihong tea is recommended
for further ageing and it is also sold in pressed form.
This type of processing is commonly used by tea farmers who do not possess
special equipment for making the fully fixed ( heat processed ) black tea.
In modern tea business this concept is also being overtaken by bigger producers who use the gentle heat to imitate the sun drying environment.

and aroma for long time , which is also guaranteed by sealing it in air tight or vaccum packs.
