Black Tea by Wiseman Tea Company
Reward yourself with the endearing character of roses, combined with black tea. The brew creates a unique balance of floral notes and premium black tea. The tea is produced in a traditional Chinese way: red rose petals and the tea leaves are layered during this process, and after the proper quality has been achieved, they are separated by sieving. If you’re looking to serve dessert, rose tea will make the perfect complement.
This was included as a free sample with my order from Wiseman Tea Co – which I thought was rather nice of them.
The dry leaves smelled delicately fragrant, like damask rose, though their flavour in the tea was slightly muted when compared to other rose teas I’ve had. Still, I’d rather have that than drink tea where the rose is so strong it’s like drinking perfume. The black tea base was mild and unobtrusive, mixing well with the rose while not being completely over-powered.
