Pout Spout Yixing Teapot $75.95 YUNNAN GOLD THREAD This exquisite tea is in very limited supply as only a small quantity is produced each year. In dry leaf, the tea appears almost gold because of the very high percentage of golden tips present. The tea has less "earthiness" than most Yunnans and the liquor is a superb burnished gold in colour - all in all a rich, smooth "malty" tea with a firm astringent finish. Yunnan Gold Thread 100g 3.53oz $9.25Yunnan Gold Thread 200g 7.06oz $17.00Yunnan Gold Thread 500g 17.65oz $40.00 qty: YUNNAN ROYAL A delightful drink exhibiting a smooth, rich "malt and pepper" on the palate; this premium Yunnan tea has a high percentage of fragrant golden tips in dry leaf.

In dry leaf the tea has narrow shiny pointed black leaves with touches of gold, & gives of a rich toasty/nutty aroma which is very appealing. When infused for 3 minutes using freshly drawn boiled water, the resulting beverage has an intense black "sparkling" colour, with pleasing mouth feel and lifted malty aromas. This is a very fine black tea & it will happily take milk and or sugar if so desired. Makes superior breakfast tea! FUJIAN GOLD NEEDLE 200g (7.06oz) $14.95. Fujian Gold Needle 100g 3.53oz $8.25Fujian Gold Needle 200g 7.06oz $14.95Fujian Gold Needle 500g 17.65oz $35.00 qty: BLACK ROSE BLACK ROSE MEI HUA is no delicate flower, but rather a rich black tea from Fujian Province infused with exquisite sweet "mei hua" or rose blossoms & rose essence. The variety of rose used has been specially bred to be blended with Fujian tea. This is undoubtedly an outstanding addition to our scented tea range, and offers a generously flavoured & somewhat exotic tea for all fine tea drinkers. The base black tea used in this rose blend is of high quality & produces a deep black infusion which has a natural sweetness, without any bitterness. The rose blossoms used are famous throughout China for their sweet aroma and deep pink petals. An exceptional herbal-black tea for after-dinner BLACK ROSE MEI HUA 200g (7.06oz) $12.95. Fujian Black Rose 100g 3.53oz $6.25Fujian Black Rose 200g 7.06oz $11.50Fujian Black Rose 500g 17.65oz $25.50 qty: BLACK JASMINE BLACK JASMINE selected by G&S is a deeply flavoured Fujian black tea, infused with jasmine blossoms. The teamen in Fujian Province are famed for their ability to make quality flower-scented teas, and the Black Jasmine is a fine example of their tea producing skills. Most "jasmine" teas are made using a green tea base, but this tea caters to the black tea drinker who would like to try the combination of jasmine with a premium black tea. The jasmine influence is quite subdued here, so this tea would suit the black tea drinker looking for a more subtle scented teaBLACK JASMINE 200g (7.06oz) $7.95. Fujian Black Jasmine 100g 3.53oz $6.25Fujian Black Jasmine 200g 7.06oz $11.20Fujian Black Jasmine 500g 17.65oz $25.95 qty: LAPSANG SOUCHONG Lapsang Souchongselected by G&S is a richly smoked Fujian black tea. Lapsang Souchong is quite possibly the most famous "undrunk" black tea in existence! And many people would ask why it still exists at all! Yet it is revered by statesmen and admired by characters of fiction. It is a tea that has acquired 'intellectual' qualities.Nevertheless, its virtues bewilder a great number of dedicated tea drinkers, equally delighting those who take pleasurein its robustness and somewhat harsh character. Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong means Zheng Mountain small tea variety.This name was anglicised to Lapsang Souchong some time in the early years of the nineteenth century.The tea evolved from the smoky off-flavours that accompanied wood-fired wok roasting of black and oolong teas of the period.At the request of English merchants this smoking was to a large extent managed & refined. Very little has changed in themanufacture of Lapsang. The initial processing follows procedures common to other Chinese black teas. The leaf is allowedto achieve a lengthy oxidation before roasting, rolling and drying. Much of the work is still performed by hand. In the smokehouse Lapsang blacks are hung from bamboo baskets above smouldering pine-wood ash: a process that takes severalhours & needs constant attention. Originally made from a Fujian oolong tea clone, today Lapsangs are manufactured in severalof China's black tea regions. Lapsang was made for the British markets & supplied in increasing amounts after the 1840s foruse in blending. The export of Lapsang to Britain peaked around 1870 when increasing volumes of British Indian teas startedto dominate the trade in black tea. Tastes changed and the coarseness of Lapsang was resigned to history. These days it ispossible to find high quality Lapsang made from fine oolong leaf, which has been smoked properly & carefully stored. Suchteas are very, very rare! Lapsang is a marvellous accompaniment to a rich peaty single malt whisky from Islay!!Gray & Seddon are pleased to offer two Lapsang Souchong teas. One is made in Fujian Province, the home of Lapsang. The other is made in HunanProvince - a greatly underrated tea producing area. We think the Hunan Lapsang to be of a superior quality to the Fujian tea - but yoube the judge!
