崂山红茶
Harvest
May 2022
Origin
Qingdao, Shandong
A beautiful tea from the family tea farms of our good friend Mr. Tang. The tiny tea gardens are nestled between the ocean and mountain, overlooking the Yellow Sea in one direction and facing the magnificent cliffs of Mount Lao in the other. Qingdao is located in northern China where temperatures are lower. This allows the tea leaves to grow slower, yielding a richer black tea.
This unique black tea is a product of the unique terroir, mountains, cloud and mist, ocean, and spring water from Mount Lao.
This year's harvest is amazing - notes of wildflowers, honey and dark chocolate.
