Chinese black tea, or "hongcha," meaning "red tea" in Chinese, is renowned for its bold flavors, robust aroma, and rich cultural heritage. Unlike green tea, black tea undergoes full oxidation, resulting in its signature dark color and complex taste. Popular varieties like Keemun and Lapsang Souchong offer unique profiles, from smoky to floral, catering to diverse palates.

Hongcha holds a special place in Chinese culture and tea ceremonies. It is enjoyed both as a standalone drink and as a complement to meals. Packed with antioxidants, Chinese black tea not only delights the senses but also provides health benefits like improved digestion and mental clarity.
