Description

Traditionally Black Tea was processed from a large-leaf varietal (Var. Assamica) due to its robust character. However, small-leaf varietal (C. Sinensis) has turned into a popular specimen for making black (red) tea. This practice first originated in Taiwan in Ming Jian as an experiment by the local farmers. The popularity of small-leaf black teas soon spread to Taitung as a practice to generate economic value during summer which was normally “fallow period” for tea picking and production due to the heat.

We are proud to offer this modern black tea to you in an organic way at an extremely affordable price. Its soft body and smooth taste will certainly please people who were not familiar with small-leaf varietal black tea, providing a great introduction!
