A representative of Taiwanese bug-bitten teas, this black tea is made in seaside Hualien and is loved for its alluring honey aroma.
Why we love it:
- It's a bug-bitten tea: when tiny leafhoppers start nibbling on the leaves in the field, the tea plant releases chemicals to defend itself - which to humans smell like honey. Farmers allow for a certain amount of damage to give the resulting tea a natural honey aroma.
- It is freshly roasted, which adds a toasted quality to the honey flavour—perfect for pairing with desserts.
