A lovely tea from Yang Ta village in Jinggu county.  Camellia Taliensis varietal tea leaves picked from 40 to 60 year old plantation bushes, and processed into this lovely and unique black tea.  Through a process of frying, rolling, wilting and drying Mr. Lu (a Yang Ta local tea grower) has brought out all the subtle and complex nuances that this lovely varietal has to offer.  Thick, sweet, malty and floral, this tea brews up a lovely vibrant and stimulating cup of tea!

Reviews

I would like to thank

"I would like to thank you very much for recommending this black tea to me. It has floral, honey and roasted sweet potato aromas. Best to drink hot."

— Ching Y. (5/5)

Not quite the same this harvest

"I've been buying this tea for several years and always found it to warrant the highest rating, it's among my favorites. However, the spring 2024 picking isn't quite up to its usual high standard in my opinion. The leaf quality is larger, rougher, less uniform in color, and bit less flavorful compared to previous harvests. (I have both 2022 and 2023 harvests in my tea cabinet for comparison.) It seems ever so slightly less sweet and malty. Like wine, tea is subject to the variabilities of the weather and processing, so one must accept these things. Nonetheless, this is still a very fine tea that I'll buy again."

Very delicate and gentle tea.

"Very delicate and gentle tea. The color of the infusion is not very saturated, pleasant aroma and light taste. Quickly loses flavor on the second and third brews."
