Overview
Pairing: breakfast pastries, aged cheese, or dark chocolate
An odd, forgotten black tea aging experiment from the back of our warehouse. In 2019, we pressed 2016 Natural Redhead material into a cake and aged it for 5 more years before release in 2024. Plummy, malty, thick bodied Yunnan sun-dried black tea with aged smoothness. Remarkably easy to drink black tea for the morning.The cakes are in bamboo tongs, with five cakes per tong.
