Hunan Black from TeaSource

Hunan Black

Black Tea by TeaSource

A classic China FOP black congou tea. This tea is very similar to a Keemun tea. It is full-bodied with a sweet earthiness, and takes milk and sugar well. It also makes a very nice iced tea.

I can only echo the other reviewer. This too reminded me of a Mao Feng tea—Hong Mao Feng. It had that kind of mellow smoothness to it. It had a bit of the earthy taste of of Dian Hong or the Empire Keemun I tried recently, but it’s a milder taste, with a chocolate note that is fine as a self-drinker but I think would partner well with milk.

Reminds me of a Mao Feng tea, with some earthiness, chocolatey notes, a good strong morning tea.
