Description

This is one of the most sought-after black teas from China, despite the fact that it is a “new” black tea having been first produced in 2004. This black tea is a bud only pluck from Wuyi Mountain in the Fujian province and is entirely hand-processed. The cup is thick, rich, complex, sweet, and spicy; think of a cross between black licorice and Guiness.
