Black Teas

Fresh, green leaves are withered after picking, spread out on racks to dry out, and then crushed by rollers to release the leaves' juices. This oxidization process turns the leaves brown. The leaves are then 'fired' by hot air. Black teas are the principal teas of world production. Our black teas are sourced from the best single tea gardens of each region. Available as leaf tea or in tag tea bags.
