Secret Village Tea (Tong Mu "Hua Xiang" Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong)

I’m an unapologetic tea snob- loose leaf high quality teas are my addiction. Secret Village Tea is my new number 1 favorite tea EVER.

I make a big pot of high quality tea every day for me, my husband and our two teen daughters. This tea is so good my coffee drinking husband stole my second cup the first day. Consequently I made it in the BIG brown betty three days in a row and he kept unapologetically snitching mine!
I do not want to ever run out of this tea so I grabbed two of the big bags. It really is that amazing!!

I did it according to the directions first- a one minute and then two minute infusion. Both are truly excellent!! However this tea really knocked our socks off with a 3 minute 200 degree infusion with a small dollop of honey and oat milk barista creamer. Zero bitterness and the oat milk creamer and honey brought out this kind of natural toasted butterscotch flavor that was ridiculously addictive!!! It kept you coming back for just one more sip. Mouthwatering depths to this tea- fragrant, intense, hearty and incredibly satisfying. Every sip my hubby and where like- do you taste that?!

Seriously I cannot recommend this tea strongly enough!!

It has been a long time since I was so taken with a new type of tea. This tea is absolutely wonderful. And frankly I don’t fi d it anywhere but Whistling Kettle.

This has become one of the teas that I rely on and look forward to with every cup. I'm so glad I gave this one a try!

Just finished my Secret Village black tea. This is an excellent strong and tasty Chinese variety. Always on the lookout for good teas and experiment with tea suppliers all over the US.
This is a keeper.

I liked this tea. It has a slightly yammy flavor, but still with a strong tea flavor. I prefer golden monkey which has a stronger yam flavor, but if that's not your cup of tea (hehheh) then this one is also delicious.
