Here it is! Our very own tea. Made with love by your humble Taiwanese tea provider. This is what our passion for tea and our love of our Baguashan terroir brings us to do. Never will we claim that its a fantastic tea, we’ll let you decide how good it is. But, if you know us a little bit by now, you know that we would never propose a tea on this site that wouldn’t meet stringent criteria for the quality of the experience and the enjoyment brought in savouring this tea. And, we are even more critical when it comes to our own proposals! As for being authentic, our chapped hands and aching backs can attest to that! What we can also say is that it was made with the extra care and scrutiny our convictions about responsible farming that are definite concerns of ours. No pesticides or chemical fertilizers were used in the making of this tea. What can you expect in the cup? Well, this black tea has the vivacity of its Si Ji Chun Cultivar and offers a lovely tangy and refreshing taste that’s easy to drink. The aroma definitely show traces of citrus fruits, more so like mandarins with hints of other exotic fruits with no trace of bitterness (this is also our No. 1 tea for making cold infused iced tea, simply lovely!). Give it a try, we’d love to hear your thoughts about it!
