The Hualien district located at the eastern coast of Taiwan is home of this speciality: Honey Black. It is mainly produced during the summer months when the young leaves are nibbled at by small grasshoppers, which leads the leaves to stop their growth and to curl. At the same time, the salivary juice of the grasshoppers initiates a reaction with the plant juices, yielding a slightly honey-like flavour. A result, which is responsible for the name as well as the wonderful taste. A very well-worked leaf with longish, dark brown leaves and some copper-coloured tips, slightly curled. The strong, brazen-coloured, shining cup unfolds a scent, which reminds of Oolong. The floral notes with a hint of honey and some malty aromas will pamper your taste buds.

In China, this speciality is as popular as its partner, Jasmine Dragon Pearls. Its fine leaves are rolled to a tight ball. After the balls have been brewed, the infusion impressingly discloses the secret around the "two leaves and a bud" plucking rule. The cup impresses with an elegant champagne colour. The taste keeps the promise that the leaf and bouquet of the cup hint at: a unique, very light and mild note. A sweetish background rounds off the soft and mild taste. For green tea novices, this tea has the perfect taste to enter this new world of flavour.
