"I start craving this tea when it starts to get a bit colder and the leaves begin to change colors. It has warming cocoa notes and a bit of a spiciness which makes it perfect choice to start an autumn or winter day."
"This tea has a lot of golden tips and steeps to a rich terra cotta color with a dark, sweet aroma. The spicy, earth flavor reminds me of the rich smell of a newly fallen leaf. If you enjoy red wine, dark chocolate or even a thick, dark beer, you will like the taste of this Yunnan black tea."
