Java Santosa BOPS Black Tea

Description

Product description

Santosa has pride of place in your tea cabinet. Harvested in the peak growing season, this tea variety is one of Indonesia’s best-kept secrets. A pale amber potion with flowery and malty notes, this brew is a prime example of high-quality Javan tea.

Taste

Java Santosa is a black tea with an almost herbal character. Deep but medium-bodied, toned down with a honey-like sweetness but followed by a slightly bitter aftertaste, this brew isn’t your run-of-the-mill black tea.

It’s a drink with hints of wood and fruit, light on the palate and surprisingly fragrant. It goes down well after dinner and it calls for a lemon tart or a tea cake to round off those fruity notes and soften the bitter-sweet aftertaste.  

Caffeine Level

No need to worry about the caffeine level in this tea. At only 27 mg to 35 mg per cup, it’s quite moderate.
