"Silk Road" Black Tea Sampler

A wonderful introduction to the wide range of Chinese black teas: yunnan jig - Black tea from Yunnan, China. Soft tea with an abundance of golden tips. Sweet, almost creamy aroma. Rich and savory flavor, with a slight cocoa powder finish. Earthy and spicy and soft, smooth mouthfeel and finish. Classic Yunnan. english breakfast - Classic English Breakfast was made with black Keemun tea from Anhui, China. Ours stays close to tradition, with fine quality Keemun: slightly smoky flavor and perfectly 'on point' astringency. Balanced, very honeyed aroma. An Adagio best seller. pu erh poe - A rare aged, fermented tea from Yunnan, China, pu'erh stands apart with its uncommonly soft earthy flavor. Freshly damp forest aroma, warm hay inside a barn, mushrooms and savory vegetables. Wilted flower notes and faintly dark chocolate texture. yunnan noir - Hand-rolled black tea from Yunnan, China, with leaves curled into a 'black snail' shape. Sweet aroma, hints of honey and spice. Savory and winey on the palate, smooth fruity astringency, cinnamon bark and nutmeg finish. Very textured cup of tea.
