We generally focus on Yunnan tea , but Fujian also offers large variety of black tea but only from small young bushes. In Yunnan the most famous areas are Feng Qing and Simao ( Puer ).
In Yunnan generally red tea is made of spring , summer or autumn harvest. It is falsely believed that the spring harvest is always the best. Some red ( blacks ) are the better in autumn edition than spring. Also some black teas might take year or two to develop a better taste, so the fresh ones also not always better.
Brewing parameters ( volume , amount of tea , time of brewing ) depends on personal taste preference and desired strength of the tea. Temperature is recommended 90 - 100C where lower temperature for more tipsy blacks or light withered sun dried ones and higher for dark oxidized and heavy roasted black teas like Keemun , Zhen Shan Xiao Zhong etc.
In brewing the white tea, the size of the leaf ( grade ) , age of trees ( bush or Gushu ) or shape ( loose / pressed and soft or hard pressed ) factors also need to be concerned.
