Kentucky Blend Black Tea

This is our signature best-selling blend of black Chinese teas from Yunnan and Anhui Provinces. Our tea blender grew up on a farm in Kentucky and many of his earliest memories revolved around the smell of freshly plowed earth, the leather on a horse's saddle, or the hayloft of a barn. He wanted to create a tea that reminded him of those experiences. This full-bodied tea is a wonderful cup for breakfast or afternoon tea. Rich and earthy, it will remind you of a morning walk in the Kentucky countryside - thoroughbreds not included.

We private label this tea for Rick Dees Top 40 Blend.

Also available in pyramid sachets.
