Description

Originally black teas in China were grown near the coast because they were cultivated for export. In 1938 with the Japanese invasion and occupation of the East Coast the cultivation of tea moved to Western China because of ease of trade through India and so began the history of Yunnan black tea.

Brew:1 tsp per 250ml, 2-3 mins at 100 °C (212°F) Good for 2 infusions

Serve:Hot

Flavour:Sweet, smooth, woody, honey, molasses notes. A hint of fennel on the returning flavour. The sensation of this tea runs around your mouth.
