Description

We invite you to try a tea that quickly captured our hearts as one of our favorite pure black teas in our line up. Complex and floral with rich notes of cacao, Secret Village Tea brews a smooth and silky cup. Unlike most black teas, it needs less than a minute to steep and has virtually no bitterness. It is hand processed in the remote Tong Mu village high in the mountains of Fujian Province, China. Access to the village is strictly limited to keep their natural environment in pristine condition. Grown in verdant, mountain tea gardens, Secret Village Tea is among the world's finest.

Secret no more

Just finished my Secret Village black tea. This is an excellent strong and tasty Chinese variety. Always on the lookout for good teas and experiment with tea suppliers all over the US.
This is a keeper.

good

I liked this tea. It has a slightly yammy flavor, but still with a strong tea flavor. I prefer golden monkey which has a stronger yam flavor, but if that's not your cup of tea (hehheh) then this one is also delicious.
