Black Organic Tea: Loose Leaf

Zealong's organic black tea leaves are loosely rolled with dark brown twists and packed fresh in a resealable foil pouch. With our recommended brewing instructions this 50g pack will give you 40 - 50 cups of tea. When steeped this luxurious tea is a deep copper brown color, it's full bodied with a sweet undertone and silky smooth finish.
