From Harney & Sons

Mike found this tea in Las Vegas (known for its tea production) at the World Tea Expo. It is made near Keemun, so it shares many of the similar flavors. However they handle the leaves a bit differently and the tea is rolled into little curls that are quite shiny. Songluo Mountain is located between Qimen (aka Keemun) and the city of Huangshan in southern Anhui Province. They make sure the that the oxidation is slow & controlled, so that the lovely flavors develop over the hours. To get the shiny curls, high temperatures are required during the firing, yet they avoid any burnt or smoky flavors.

A sweet black tea. This is probably my favorite tea from Harney & Sons. The website’s flavor description “like sun-dried hay” is accurate, but the tea also has a very strong honey note. When chilled the tea almost tastes like honey water. This one makes amazingly malty milk tea as well.

I wish other vendors sold this at a cheaper price, it’s weird this tea is so obscure that I only found one other vendor selling at an even higher price.

sold for $30/4oz
