Formosa Red Jade Black Tea

The Jewel of Taiwan. Celebrated for its vibrant personality, our Red Jade (Ruby No. 18) is a masterclass in black tea. Harvested in the peak summer heat to maximize its rich catechin content, it reveals a luminous ruby liquor with a signature cooling mint aroma and hints of warm cinnamon. Silky-smooth with virtually no astringency, it offers a multi-dimensional sweetness that excels as both a comforting hot brew and a refreshing cold steep.
