    There are many different translations of the name of this tea, but let's take it appart:

    金 - jīn - Gold
    骏 - jùn - Stud
    眉 - méi - Eyebrows

    Translating from Chinese is often pointless, because it requires some understanding of the culture, to figure out the real meaning.

    For example, the second character here is not usually used on it's own. If you would like to say "a horse" you would use character 马 (mǎ), but 骏 (jùn) is usually used in sayings and wishes. Usually it used to represent wealth, honour, glory, generosity and business prosperity.

    Alright, but what;s with eyebrows?
    眉 - méi - directly translates like eyebrows, but the meaning behind it is longevity.

    If you assemble all the peaces together, you would get:
    Wishing you wealth, success and longevity. When you are serving this tea to your guests, you are wishing them all of those things without saying a word.

     

    The taste of this tea is very bright and direct, it reminds me about well-made dried fruits and dark bitter chocolate. It is one of the best teas for newcomers who prefer a strong-tasting tea, but even after 9 years of studying this is still my goto tea for everyday drinking. This variant has less tips, more leaves, which makes it taste less round, more pronounced and direct. The tea has outstanding rich aroma both in chahai and in a cup.

    This tea is harvested in province Fujian
