Hailing from a remote mountainous region in northern Thailand, where the growing conditions are truly wild, this ancient forest tea presents an impressive strength and rich flavor. The complex tannic structure and phenolic density of these old roots tea trees provide a bold body and robust ruby red infusion. With its rich vivacity and robust, malty character, Wild Thai Black offers a far more rustic and adventurous black tea experience than the common (and easily accessed) colonial heritage teas from Assam, Darjeeling, or Ceylon.

Tasting Notes: Wild Thai Black has energy and heft with aromatic notes of ripe pit fruits, Bing cherry, hints of graham cracker and a tinge of cassia.

Ingredients: Organic black tea

Preparation: 5.5g (1.5 tbsp.) in 350mL (12oz) of water at 93C (200F) for 4-5 minutes
