Description
Black Teas are generally stronger in flavour than less oxidised teas like Oolong, green and white teas. Known to retain its flavour for several years, black tea has long been an article of trade, and compressed bricks of black tea even served as a form of De facto currency in Mongolia, Tibet and Siberia in the 19th century. Black tea accounts for 90% of all tea sold in the west. The brewed liquor of a Black tea ranges between dark brown and deep red. Black teas offer the strongest flavours and, in some cases, greatest astringency. This was Winston Churchills favourite tea. It has a smoky aroma and flavour with a Golden-coppery colour in the cup.
