Description
This black tea is harvested in Cao Bo, northern Vietnam, surrounded by mountains. Its crop is rich in golden buds, and is meticulously harvested from ancient “shan tuyet” tea plants, which
are tended to by the Dao people.
This black tea offers an indulgent profile that blends cocoa, woody and fruity notes, and develops against an especially round texture.
