This is a lovely and special tea. Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong Black tea from Fujian has been stuffed into a fresh King Orange and then cured together. The black tea has obsorbed alot of the citrus taste and it's both tasty and subtle. I prefer to break in half and brew the black tea and the orange all together. If you prefer less citrus taste you can remove the tea from the dried rind and brew separately. King Orange is a small green orange which originates from Vietnam but is now grown in Southern Yunnan. It is known in Vietnam as Cam sành . It is tasty to eat by itself and although rather small and green it's sweet and pungent. Each little "King Orange" is roughly 12 grams (+/- 2 gram) and comes individually wrapped in hypo-allergenic paper. Ingredients: Orange Peel, Black Tea Please note: Over time the oils from the peel may form a white frost on the peel. This is not mold. We won't take returns or offer refunds for that. It's a feature not a flaw!
