Description:
A wonderful Tieguanyin black tea, i.e. a black tea made from Oolong tea-plants. It is for this reason that the tea does not have red-golden tips. The tea has been shaped into semi-lumps (Ban Qiu Xing) like Tieguanyin-Oolong. This particular tea has been beautifully crafted on Mount Bijiashan, in the south-west of the city of Anxi. It has only been a few years that black tea has been produced there. Usually this particular producer makes classic and modern variations of the An Xi Tie Guan, the most famous of Minnan Oolong.
Character:
Delicately tart, soft and light, this tea combines fruity with savoury tastes. One can discover the taste of roasted rice with sweet vegetables, fresh and yet pleasantly dark and warm.

Description:
A top quality black tea from the Oolong tea plant varietal named Mei Zhan that originally comes from Anxi in the province of Fujian.

For this Hongmeizhan only tips have been used, the leaves thus look rather small for a black tea that has been made from Oolong tea plants.
Character:
A smell of flowers, malt and chocolate, this tea is structured around a clear and enjoyable tart taste.

Description:
A very beautiful black tea made from a cross-bred tea varietal: wild Taiwanese tea bushes and Burmese Assamica tea plants (Chinese Da Ye Zhong). This varietal was cultivated in the first half of the 20th century by the Japanese during the time of their occupation of Taiwan in order to compete with the black teas from British-India. This new varietal bread from an Oolong tea varietal and an Assam varietal is part of the black teas made of oolong tea plants. Additionally to the notes of an Oolong tea as well as those of a Ceylon/Assam this Hongyu Hongcha has very pleasant aromatic cinnamon and mint notes. Originally this tea is grown on the shores of sun moon lake (Ri Yue Tan), where the plants planted by the Japanese grow. Our Hongyu Hongcha grows in Mingjian, where a few years ago the new varietal was planted.
Character:
A powerful cloak enlaces a tender fruit. Creamy full of relish and tart in a noble way, an enchanting and captivating tea.
