Taiwan Assamica
$29.90 – $129.90
This intriguing Taiwanese black tea has a rich history and an adaptable flavor. The Taiwanese “Tea Research and Extension Centre” painstakingly nurtured and developed the tea cultivar TRES #8, which is used to make this black tea.
The original plants are derived originated in the Assam region of India. Black teas from the Taiwan province are renowned for being robust, malty, and sweet. Even now, some of these Assamica plants can be seen growing wild in Taiwan.
The taste
If the taste were a feeling, it could best be described as a cozy, rainy summer evening spent snuggled up at grandma’s. The tea is incredibly intense and expressive, similar to a black tea from Assam, but is much less bitter and much sweeter. It has light flavors of cinnamon, licorice and cedar wood. An exciting and versatile taste experience.
