Preparation instructions:
Pour on briefly! Start with very short infusions and only slowly increase the steeping time – this black tea is particularly productive and easy to brew.
An expressive tea for lovers of powerful, characterful black teas.
Caution when pouring water:
This tea is strong. We recommend very short infusions (flash brews) and only gently extending the steeping time if the tea seems too mild. Heavily oxidized black teas of this type are particularly easy to overbrew.
