Description

Brewed strong, this dark roasted o’olong has notes of oak, toasted seaweed, roasted coffee, and dark chocolate! Brewed light, you get notes of a smoky sweet caramel mocha! Dark Roast Anxi Tieguanyin is very bold and thick due to the multi-day slow-roast that gives it its caramelized flavor. Besides being incredibly smooth plain, adding a splash of coconut milk to this tea will transform it into a mouthwatering desert tea! There is no bitterness with even very long steeps, making this the perfect companion for the coffee lover or road-tripper!

Hint: Add vanilla ice cream to a strong cup of this tea instead of milk to make a fantastic treat!

*To intensify the notes, brew 1tsp of leaves in 8oz of boiling water for 10 minutes.
