Production and Flavor Profile: We are obsessed with this tea! This Premium Keemun Black Tea is from the subtropical zone of China. It is a Zhuyezhong, small leaf cultivar, harvested in late May this year. It was expertly plucked (one bud with one or two leaves), withered, hand-rolled, oxidized in bamboo baskets and traditionally charcoal baked. It yields a deeply smooth, creamy body, with rich notes of toasted cacao and sweet melon. Stunning taken black or with milk.
Farming Style: Due to ideal growing conditions and countless generations of master farmers and processors, this tea is organically grown, using age-old techniques with no chemical pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers. It is hand-picked for extra high quality tea leaves.
