Cherry wood smoked Black Tea
This black tea is made using a blend of first and second flush leaves of the Yabukita bush, the most common variety among all Japanese sub-varietals of camellia sinensis. The leaves were smoked using cherry wood chips. The delicate aroma and the taste of cherry transferred to the leaves adds sofistication and complexity to this tea. This tea is from Shizuoka prefecture.
