Black Tea China Huoshan - character and origin from Anhui
Black Tea China Huoshan is a distinctive black tea from Huoshan in Anhui, China. The tea is made from tea leaves from a region best known for Huoshan Yellow Tea, but full oxidation gives it a clearly different and fuller character.
Its flavour profile is smoky and malty, with a full and aromatic taste. The malty base is complemented by subtly smoky nuances, giving this Chinese black tea a pronounced yet balanced character.
Huoshan is located in the Chinese province of Anhui and has a long tradition of tea production. While Huoshan is best known for its yellow tea, the full oxidation of the leaves in this variant creates the deeper colour and robust flavour characteristic of black tea.
Anhui, China
Anhui is a mountainous tea province in eastern China, where tea has been part of the local culture for centuries. The cool, humid climate and often misty mountain slopes provide ideal conditions for refined teas. The region is best known for Huang Shan Mao Feng and the black tea Keemun.
