Formosa Assam Black 2019 No.631

All time favourite, sweet Taiwanese black tea.

Its mesmerising taste profile unites the dark chocolate taste of classic black teas with the more fragrant and sweet notes of Taiwan: mild caramel, mellow pumpkin and a hint of vanilla to crown this exquisite tea.

Zhongliao is situated in central-Taiwan, Nantou county (南投). The northern Wu, or Black river (烏溪) and the southern Zhoushui river (濁水溪) embrace this area, providing it with a perfect climate for tea growing. Besides, south from its borders, at the feet of the mountains spreads out the Sun-Moon lake (日月潭), a most charming vista indeed.
