This orange pekoe black tea from Yunnan, China is an established favorite here in Eugene, Oregon, the city of its namesake. A sweet, rich malty aroma, somewhat like molasses. Naturally sweet with hints of tangy-ness. Rich fruit undertones such as mango pleasantly remain on the palate long after sipping. This is a great everyday black tea. Drinks well on its own or with cream and sugar. Recommended for both hot and iced tea. This tea is smooth without too much bite, meaning it is smooth and gentle on the digestive system.
