A rare hand-picked and hand-kneaded black tea in small production, Honey Black Tea is made only with buds nibbled by green leafhoppers, whose saliva creates a honeyed aroma.
The amber infusion is a classic favourite that gives an enchanting honeyed aroma, in some cases with a hint of Osmanthus. The rich, caramelly aftertaste is truly refreshing.
Attentive care is essential in tending both the shrubs and the bugs. A Pesticide-free, organic farming approach is therefore adopted to preserve the precious ecosystem.
Features:
- The Honey Black Tea leaf has a chain-like appearance in lustrous burgundy red.
- The brew, with a bright amber hue, is as clear as red tea.
- The tea has a round, full-bodied palate; ripe fruit aroma; and well-defined length.
- Fully fermented, Honey Black Tea is characterised by its round flavour and clear colour without a burnt undertone. It is shelf-stable and particularly prized for ageing elegantly.
