Premium Loose Leaf Black Tea - Organic & Rich Flavor for Tea Lovers - Perfect for Afternoon Tea, Gifts & Relaxation

Product Description

This is a fermented tea, or type of , with a unique, complex flavor and smooth texture. Made in Anhui Province, it has gone through wu doi, a pile-fermentation process, and was packed inside a woven bamboo basket in 2004. The sweet, tangy fragrance leads to notes of tobacco and earth, which mellow into a taste somewhere between a black tea and a pu-erh.

The jet-black leaves can be infused similarly to a pu-erh: after a quick initial rinse, steep several times in water just off a boil.
