Looking for light, florat black teas. Any ideas?
Floral, fresh, a little sweet, overall light. Ceylon High Grown? Anything similar? Oh, no Darjeeling for me, thanks.
Are Nepal teas out too? Other than that, the couple black Dan Congs I’ve had were floral, though I’d describe them as rich and fruity rather than light. You could try asking Alistair from What-Cha for recommendations, as he sources lots of black teas from all over the world.

Search for Hong Yun. Lot 400 (only available in 250g at the moment) was a wonderful tea – tasted like lychee and very floral.
Jin Hao black tea,
Keemun Imperial black tea.
These two are sweet, light and fruity. Quite different from one another, but both some of my favorites :)
I carry them in my shop, you can take a look if you’re interested:
