Wild grown in the Vietnamese highlands, earthy yet fresh and floral, rich and gold textured, a touch of smoke and a hint of mountain haar.
£11.40
Our wild-grown Vietnamese Black Snow Faerie, from the Ho Thau region, is a marvellously rich tippy black tea. It is harvested from wild tea trees that grow 2000m above sea level in mountainous North Vietnam (bordering with Yunnan).
In the cup, it is richly scented and gold textured. It tastes earthy, yet pleasingly fresh and floral. You can detect a touch of smoke and a hint of mountain haar, as the Red Dow tribal people who pick and craft the tea fire it using woks, in order to halt the oxidation process and lock in the tea’s complexities. The unique taste of this sublime brew wonderfully evokes the landscape and culture from whence it originates.
This wild-grown black tea is also available in a beautiful Tchai-Ovna gold-leaf printed luxury jar:
