The special quality of black tea reveals itself in its beautiful, unbroken and textured leaves. Careful processing ensures that the leaves are not damaged and lends this tea its deep aroma and warm, crimson colour. Unlike green or white tea, black tea is fermented and the fermentation process is not interrupted as in blue teas. Due to being fully fermented and non-perishable black tea used to be the only variety of tea available in Europe.

HEALTH BENEFITS
During fermentation process the teas’ natural polyphenols are transformed into tannins, which not only give black tea its characteristic colour and aroma, but also make the theine soluble, which increases the tea’s stimulating effect.

PREPARATION
Quantity 5 g per 1000 ml
Water temperature 95° C
1st infusion 3-5 minutes
2nd infusion 7 minutes
Before brewing the tea, it is best to rinse the leaves and warm the teapot. Ideally, the tea should be brewed with filtered water. Black tea can be served with milk and sugar, according to taste.

ORIGIN
This black tea comes from Yingde in the Guangdong Province.

Hi Every One,
How are you.I think black tea is the purest and a strongest taste tea in the world.A little bit bitter in taste it is good for health.It is called "black" because it is sipped without pouring milk.Sugar is added for sweetness.I use it regularly before sleeping .

Thanks..
