Originating from the West Lake region of Hangzhou, Zhejiang, Jiu Qu Hong Mei (九曲红梅), or Red Plum, is a distinctive Chinese black tea celebrated for its elegant aroma and mellow sweetness. Its slender, tightly curled dark leaves unfurl to reveal a bright reddish-amber liquor. On the palate, ripe plum and honey notes are complemented by delicate floral aromas and gentle cocoa nuances, creating a smooth, velvety finish with a lingering sweetness.
Tasting Notes: Ripe plum, honey, cocoa and delicate floral notes.
