Black Tea Week

This Tuesday, we tasted Black tea in the Teacal.  It wasn't the most extensive tasting in comparison to Greens and Oolongs, which are much more plentiful in Chinese tea production.  However, we tasted some nice teas from Norbu Tea and Numi Tea.

We tasted Numi's Aged Earl Grey.  It's a black tea flavored with Bergamot oil.  It's a strong one, with nice citrusy flavors and the bite of the high quality black tea.

We also had a Feng Qing Gold Tips variety, from Norbu.  It's from the Yunnan province and it's leaves are a lighter color, and very thin and fuzzy.
