Description

This is black tea at its most dependable: a fully fermented Camellia sinensis from China, leaves steeped to a deep amber and a strong, full-bodied character. Made from mature leaves, it carries an intense flavour and a good measure of caffeine, the kind of cup that wakes you gently and stays with you. Loose leaf, it makes an easy companion to a quiet morning at O Cais, or to take home for a moment of grounding when the day asks for it.
