The Hao Ya A grade is scarce, expensive, and highly sought after. Most Keemuns are very nice black teas, but the Hao Ya A grade is unforgettable. It is similar to Mao Feng in taste and mouthfeel, yet somewhat more mellow and delicate. The aftertaste lingers long after each slurp. 

Grade A Hao Ya is called "The Burgundy of Tea. It gained popularity in England and became the most prominent ingredient of high-class English Breakfast tea. In fact, if you are used to drinking English breakfast tea, this will taste very familiar and enjoyable.

It has a sweet, biscuity fragrance and an exquisitely mild, yet complex aroma with a hint of smokiness.

Tuo Cha Pu'Erh

I really enjoyed this tea — rich, smooth, and satisfying. The small cakes make it very convenient to brew the right strength. I especially liked the effect: it put me in a calm, focused state for a couple of hours — perfect for work and deep thinking.

Hi! Glad to know the Tuo Cha helped you feel calm and focused during work and deep thinking. We appreciate your support and hope to see you again soon! Happy sipping!
