If you love teas that look as beautiful as they taste, Pine Needle Black Tea
is one you’ll want to sit with for a while. Grown in the lush hills of FengQing County in Yunnan, China, each leaf is expertly hand-rolled into a slender shape that resembles a pine needle — long, elegant, and full of character.
When steeped, the leaves unfurl slowly, releasing a rich amber liquor with a balanced sweetness
that’s both grounding and refreshing. You’ll taste plum-like fruitiness
up front, followed by smooth cacao notes
that round out the finish.
It’s a comforting, layered cup — perfect for quiet mornings, creative afternoons, or those evening moments when you just want something calm and deeply satisfying.
Every sip reminds you why loose leaf black tea
from Yunnan is so special — naturally sweet, beautifully complex, and crafted with care.
