Black tea, Indonesia

Flavour: fruit, malt, chocolate ~ silky-soft
Bukit Sari’s Imperial Black tea is carefully harvested by hand then slowly withered, gently rolled, fully oxidized and dried. The leaves infuse into an amber-coloured liquor that releases a gorgeous sweet, floral and fruity fragrance. When you sip, the liquor feels soft in your mouth, releasing subtle but decadent notes of blackberries, orange and malt with a delicate chocolate aftertaste. March 2025 harvest.

Surrounded by conservation forest, Bukit Sari tea garden sits at an altitude of 1150 – 1350m in the remote highlands of West Java, Indonesia. The garden has been certified organic since 2007 and is committed to bio-diversity and sustainable farming. Certified organic by USDA. 

Preparation: Steep for 2 - 3 minutes at 98°. Three infusions.
