Description
Ruby Black Tea delivers a full-bodied flavor with tropical fruit sweetness, warm cinnamon spice, and a subtle hint of refreshing mint. Moreover, the tea’s rich reddish-brown color, ample body, and captivating aromas come from a natural fermentation process where the tea master ferments the leaves about 80%.
Taiwan created this unique cultivar by crossing native wild tea with Assam. The Taiwan Tea Research and Extension Station introduced number 18 to farmers in 1999. Since then, it quickly gained popularity. This tea grows on a certified biological* farm using natural farming methods. Fresh leaves are shaped into stripes before fermentation.

John S –
Nice tea. I brewed this tea in my 8oz. capacity cast-iron teapot (glazed on inside with independent screen filter insert). I used perhaps 2 heaping teaspoons of tea with 8oz. of almost boiling water. The dry tea leaves from the package were all full, not broken into pieces. Whoever processes this tea takes a lot of care with every step of the process. I used the first infusion to wake up the tea and discarded after about 5 seconds. The fragrance off of the inside of the lid of the teapot was absolutely enchanting. There were notes of cinnamon and maybe raisins, but also other fragrances I cannot describe. For the first infusion I allowed the tea to brew for about one minute. The brewed tea was delightful. The second and third infusions were equally delicious. I extended the brewing time slightly for each subsequent infusion. This is a nice morning tea for a chilly day like today.
