Produced from the unique Ruby #18 cultivar, developed by cross breeding a wild Formosa tea plant varietal with a Burmese/Assam strain, this outstanding black tea hails from the Sun Moon Lake region in Nantou County, Taiwan. The long, dark, wiry leaves yield a complex, hearty liquor with a velvety smooth mouth feel. The fragrant aroma reveals layers of cinnamon, raisin, fig, vanilla, and plum, which harmonize with notes of bread pudding, baked apple, and a subtle malty hint in the full-bodied cup. A lingering caramelized brown sugar note provides a complement to a crisp snap of clove in the finish. Steep longer for deeper flavor and a stronger cup. Created in celebration of Upton Tea Imports' 35th anniversary in 2024, this delightful Formosa black tea is a staff favorite.
