Honey Black Tea

2026 Honey Black Tea 蜜香紅茶

Rose | Bergamot | Honey

Grown in the high mountain region of Shan Lin Xi in Nantou, Taiwan, this small leaf black tea develops its distinctive character through natural leafhopper interaction and careful craftsmanship. Fully oxidized, it reveals a rich yet refined profile, combining depth with an elegant aromatic lift unique to honeyed Taiwanese teas.

This tea brews into a dark honey amber liquor with a medium-bodied, malty texture. Expect fragrant notes of rose and bright hints of bergamot, layered over a smooth honeyed sweetness that lingers gently on the palate.

Comforting, aromatic, and easy to enjoy, Honey Black Tea offers a balanced, floral complexity with a soft, rounded finish, making it ideal for both everyday enjoyment and more contemplative moments.
