Tibetan Dark Coin 2017

This is a dark tea is from Tibet.  Most teas are consumed soon after production to retain their flavor, this teas are aged and refined like wine.  They undergo a fermentation process where microbes act on the tea leaves over time, causing the leaves to darken and the flavor to change, becoming smoother. Depending on the conditions and environment of aging, the taste can transform through various stages of being fruity, nutty, grassy, herbal and earthy. The liquor itself varies and can be a clear and mellow yellow to an earthy bright red-brown.  Each re-brewing of the leaves will change its character and flavor with each cup, and the leaves can be re-brewed many times, each resulting in a slightly different 
cup of tea.
