Black Sheep is a Dian Hong from Fengqin in Yunnan. The tea is hand picked from wild tea trees and formed into extra large pearls. It has a smooth, rich mouthfeel and a delightful taste of chocolate, malt and honey. The handling is very convenient. Each ball weighs approx. 1-1.5g. This allows for simple dosing of the tea and makes it ideal for travel or the office.
