Premium black teaOrigin:
ChinaThis is our signature blend of black Chinese teas from Yunnan and Anhui Provinces. Our master 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, and the barn hayloft. He wanted to create a tea that reminded him of those experiences.
This full-bodied tea makes a delicious hot beverage 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 many restaurants across America.
Also available in pyramid sachets.
KENTUCKY TEA JULEP

We love the flavor of this tea. It captures all the notes we like in black teas, without all the astringency found in many of the big-name black and orange pekoe teas. We have it every morning. If it were available in a decaffeinated version, we’d buy it, too.
My very favorite black tea blend!
A family member from Kentucky bought me this tea by mistake for Christmas one year, thinking it was a kind I'd tried and liked before. Once I tried it, my disappointment at the mistake turned upside down! For years I've been begging family members to buy a jar here and there and send it to me in Texas. After the last time I ran out, my husband finally looked up your website and ordered me a 1lb. bag. I drink it every morning, and I recommend it constantly.
Great blend and excellent service. Thank you, Elmwood Inn!
No one blends tea better than Bruce at Elmwood Inn! This black tea is exceptional. I live in New England now, but grew up in Kentucky. At one point, I lived in Danville, and this tea takes me back to the beautiful bluegrass in Central Kentucky every time I drink it.
I love this tea so much! It is smooth but a little strong like I like my tea to be,
