The Wild FuJian Black tea leaves are from wild aged arbor on High Mountains in North of FuJian. In southern of China, Fujian province, there are ancient tea trees still grow wild in some of the forests. They can be hundreds, even thousands, of years old. Purists rave about the rich brown colour of the steeped tea, the aroma of sweet forest floor, the clean, natural finish. The Wild FuJian Black tea uses robust, new leaves plucked from wild-growing trees, slightly twisted to preserve their natural flavour. The tea is characterized by its large leaves. The Wild FuJian Black tea has a distinctive appearance with its mix of long, twisted black leaves, brownish-purple buds.
The Wild FuJian Black tea are enjoyable as you would with any other black teas. However, because its unique character is not about strength, adding milk or sugar to cover the bitterness as in other teas is not going to give you a same tasting tea drink — there is no excessive bitterness needed to cover up and the milk or sugar will lower the taste character.
When infused, this tea produces an aromatic, crystal clear, reddish-amber infusion. The flavor incorporates the fruity-sweet and honey elements from the aroma with more classic, malty, "black tea" type flavors into a complex infusion that leaves a lovely, lingering aftertaste in the mouth. Highly aromatic, with a flavour that fills the palate.
