'Spring Flush' Whole Leaf Black Tea
'Spring Flush' Whole Leaf Black Tea
The cream of the crop. The bees knees. The prime pick. Our favourite black tea.
From the prized first flush of Spring growth, this exceptional whole leaf black tea has a unique flavour and aroma with a lasting sweetness on the palate. Harvested and processed in October of the production year.
When brewed correctly, this black tea is not bitter or full of tannin. This method allows the complex flavours to be enjoyed to their full potential over 5 or more steeps.
We recommend trying without milk or sweetener!
In blind test, it's an excellent and great taiwanese black tea. The taste is like a red jade but better. Very sweet and tasteful. Honey, caramel and cane sugar are major tastes. What an incredible and very fabulous tea.
