Typical Yunnan. All the favorite characteristics are there. Very close to Ancient Forrest Black. Smooth and not quite as powerful.

The everyday tea of India. No frills, just a nice strong cup. Small round granules of tea produced in the Crush Tear & Curl style (CTC). Certified Organic. Good with milk. Does justice to the phrase, "If Strength is your Weakness, then Assam is your Tea". Definitely a strong cup!
Steeping Instructions
Use 1 tsp. leaf per 8 oz. cup.
Pour boiling water over leaves.
Steep 4-5 mins.
Milk may be added.
Tea Education
CTC stands for Crush, Tear and Curl and the manufacture is handled mostly via machines. This contrasts with "orthodox" manufacture which is largely via hand with only the final few steps requiring machines. CTC manufacture results in small granules of tea and they are sorted into grades and sizes such as BP (Broken Pekoe), BOP (Broken Orange Pekoe), PF (Pekoe Fannings). The smaller the granule, the stronger the tea and the more residual sediment that remains. We typically offer a CTC.BOP grade which still offers the strength of a typical Assam CTC without it producing too much dust or residue in the cup.

My every day tea.
This is without a doubt my favorite tea. I sometimes sample other teas but I always come back to this one. It is a wonderful tea to make kombucha with also. I believe if you start with the best tea you get the best kombucha. Everyone I have let sample it agrees. Better than any available on the market.

Long lasting and functional.
No tea bags for me. I like how it lets the tea expand without squeezing the tea at all. Easy to clean. I have bought a quite few of these. Not because they broke but because I like them so much I give them as gifts!

I combine peach with Silver Tip's blackcurrant tea, and it makes a fantastic iced tea. I drink it all summer! Give it a try!

Just received a REORDER of this great tasting tea. A satisfying combination of a smoky black tea and flavorful "Earl Grey".

Jungpana: a tea daydream
After a long hot sojourn of dust and sand I stopped to enjoy the shadowy coolness of a mango grove. A man working there offered me some tea from his flask. I'd not tasted it before. It had a dusky, mellow, earthiness that was new to my palate, not fruity or vegetal like the teas to which I was accustomed. "What tea is this?" I asked. "Jungpana, " he said. He then regaled me with the story of a leopard and the tea estate. The story only served to make this tea even more appealing and delightful. How wonderful! I had found a new favorite tea to add to my repertoire.
