Description
A swirl of caramel and vanilla flavors is layered over a blend of Chinese and Indian black teas. The aroma is strong and sweet, while the black tea stands up to the sweetness in the infusion. This is what the Chinese call a "meditative tea" because it is slightly astringent and dries the mouth. Enjoy the stillness!

Teas can be flavored a number of ways, through the inclusion of ingredients - such as flowers, nuts, or berries, the addition of oils or extracts - such as citrus or vanilla, or by using artificial flavors. After being added to a base tea, these ingredients are blended together in a number of ways, either in large batches in a blending machine or in small batches by hand. Some teas are flavored through their processes, such as Lapsang Souchong, which is smoked over pine fires during drying.
