A unique black tea from a small-scale producer, the sinuous, twisted leaves have been harvested from semi-wild,?forty-year-old?tea bushes in?the middle of a forest. While recognisable as a Chinese black tea?by its characteristic maltiness, this Da Ye Hong Cha recalls its sylvan origins with herbal notes of mint and hay, contributing to a balanced flavor reminiscent of browning sugar or cr??me caramel during lighter infusions.
The tea bushes interspersed with fully wild vegetation.
For the experimentalists: try placing a single leaf or two in a cup and steeping for ten minutes??the sweeter, buttery flavor will come to the fore; leaving it?until cool makes?for an excellent summertime quaff.
