Overview
If you need something to warm your weary soul by the fire, then look no further. With a light spiced note, caramel sweetness and even a slight savoury quality, this sun dried (shaihong) Mengsong black tea pairs well with holiday snacks and festivities. Unlike traditional black teas, shaihong/ sun dried black teas can be a little less up front with their fragrance at first, but continue to develop over time, making them suitable for storing up to 2 years or more. These teas also have a bit more to offer in terms of texture, mouthfeel, and aftertaste, as this tea beautifully demonstrates. Although very much a budget friendly tea, this cake has plenty to offer while still fulfilling its duty as a solid daily drinker. $0.10/g
