Imperial Grade Laoshan Black Tea

Imperial Grade Laoshan Black is the highest grade black tea from Laoshan normally available and is picked and processed from the finest tippy material picked during the first half of May. The taste is sweet and voluminous with notes of cane sugar, chocolate and baked yams. The Classic Laoshan Black we offer is also excellent with a more robust taste and a little more of the dark chocolate bite to it. Lao Shan black is grown from Long Jing #43 and the dry leaf is small, spindly and has a brown-black shiny look to it. The brewed leaf gradually unfolds and reveals its brown color. The brewed leaves have a vertical (parallel to the stem) striations as a result of the rolling they undergo.
