From TeaSource

his aged loose-leaf dark tea (aka Hei Cha) was made in Anhua County, Hunan Province, China in 2012 by a wife/husband owned local tea company. It’s medium-bodied with a great velvety texture and sweet/meadowy notes. If you like black teas from Nilgiri in South India, we think you’ll like this tea.

I’m glad I broke this out of the cupboard because I kind of forgot how great this tea is. I was excited to have it again, but going through the exercise of rating it here really demonstrates the excellence of this tea.

Medium bodied, sweet tea with a fantastic aftertaste.

The overwhelming taste for me is honey, but I also get mineral, peach, pear, berry, and grass/hay to balance it out perfectly so it’s not too sweet.

It also gives me a solid l-theanine feeling which goes well with the mellowness of the taste.

Simply put, this is top shelf tea.

All in all, an fabulous tea that will be stored and saved for special occasions, as sadly it’s no longer available for purchase.
