Black Tea


Black tea is currently the most popular in North America, enjoyed mainly as iced tea. The fame of black tea is mainly due to the invention of the tea bag in 1904 by NYC tea merchant Thomas Sullivan. Recent studies have shown that black tea provides equal health benefits as its green cousin. London Tea continues to sell the finest loose black tea you'll find.
Yunnan Jig
Black tea from the Yunnan region of China . Yunnan tea is easily identified by its luscious soft leaves, and a unique peppery taste. It is a very forgiving tea; will not taste bitter when over-steeped. Yunnan tea is arguably the most underrated of Chinese varieties. If you have yet to try it, we would recommend it highly. Our "Yunnan Jig" would make a great introduction.
