Sun Moon Lake Red Jade (Ruby) - No.191

This tea is a must-try for any tea lover or connoisseur!

From the plush fields of Yuchi, nestled in Nantou, Formosa Island (Taiwan), the Sun Moon Lake Red Jade (Hongyu 日月潭紅玉) black tea is a testament for the superior quality of tea grown here. 

This black tea has a rich, creamy flavour and a natural fragrance of cinnamon and mint that delicately balances the senses, as if you were delicately floating on the magical Sun Moon Lake itself. The tea is grown organically, with no pesticides or chemicals, by a nurse turned tea farmer, continuing her family’s five generation legacy of sustainable tea-farming.

The skills she adopted in her previous career have been transferred to her successful cultivation; her wholeheartedness, care and passion are all reflected through the outstanding quality of her teas. This Red Jade tea is the world’s No.1 recommended black tea, and has also been recognised (by Tokyo polls) as the No.1 recommended bagged black tea of all global brands!

Ingredients: Pure Taiwanese black tea.
