BLACK
PREMIUM LOOSE LEAF TEAS
Black tea, also known as fully oxidized tea, first appeared in Fujian Province, China, where it is commonly known as ‘souchong’, or ‘small variety’ in English. There are three major sub-categories of black tea: the Fujianese ‘small variety’, ‘gong fu’ and chopped black tea (largely popularized by English tea companies in India). Major black tea producing countries are India, China, Sri Lanka and Kenya.
