Description

This black tea from central Taiwan, made by our producer of Guei Fei, was rolled in the same way as the wulongs of the island.

Its leaves show darker shades and, when wet, release woody (resin) and fruity fragrances. Its liquor is smooth and silky enriched with rich spicy notes (cinnamon). Its sweet flavor is present from beginning to end in nuances of caramel and malt.
