**China Yunnan 'Wild Arbor' Loose Leaf Black Tea**
This exquisite tea offering of 'Wild Arbor' (camellia assamica) large loose leaf tea comes from Lincang, Yunnan Province, China.
The pure assamica tea leaves were plucked in Autumn of 2014 from 60 to 80 year old tea trees that grow naturally in a family tea garden. A special processing technique was used which resulted in tea leaves that have a delicate peppery and floral fragrance that pleases the senses.
The amber-like tea liquor has a distinctive taste similar to the fragrance of the tea leaves. It has a medium body with a syrup-like mouth-feel. You can make multiple tasty infusions with the same serving size of tea leaves. Extend steeping times after the first infusion.
