Description

About

Also known as Taiwan Tea Cultivar #18, this breed was specifically made for black tea production. The most special characteristic of this tea is the malty aroma. It reminds us of fine, aged whiskey.

Asha’s Preference

We prefer to use a little less tea, 3g instead of our usual 4. Enjoy this out of a large mug on a cold day. Cup the sides with both hands and bring your nose in to savor the aroma.
