Warmed by the breath, a gingerbread aroma of spices emerges: cinnamon, ginger, black pepper, a hint of sticky resin, and a hint of caramel sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTaste and aroma\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe copper-orange infusion is scented with oriental spices: saffron, allspice, cloves, and sweet Ceylon cinnamon. The infusion's flavor is sweet and sour with woody notes, with a slight predominance of sourness: currant, quince, peach. Vanilla, raisins, and toasted notes of heavy, buttery baked goods. The moist leaves smell of smoke and freshly cut medicinal herbs. As the tea is poured, the flavor profile eventually develops into a tartness: berry or citrus, soft but distinct. The flavor is smooth, refreshing, delicate yet full-bodied, clearly defined, and virtually devoid of the sweetness typical of more budget-friendly red wines. The infusion has a distinct \"Middle Eastern\" flavor, though it is distinctly tart. It tastes like a slice of unsweetened saffron cake with peach or orange jam. The tea leaves a long, spicy, floral, and tart aftertaste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEffect\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tea gently tones, organizes thoughts, warms, and slightly uplifts the mood. Suitable for tea parties in the first half of the day, it will appeal to lovers of unsweetened, yet not tart, red teas. This variety pairs well with some oriental sweets, but it also tastes delicious on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eHow to brew\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eSteaming\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eTeaware: clay or ceramic teapot, gaiwan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eWater: 90-95°C\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eRatio of dry tea leaves: 6-7 g per 100 ml water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eBrew in short infusions of 10-15 seconds, gradually increasing the time by 5-10 seconds.\u003cbr\u003eThe flavor remains consistent over 7-8 infusions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInfusion method\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eTeaware: clay or ceramic teapot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWater: 90-95°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eRatio of dry tea leaves: 2 g per 250 ml of water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eInfuse for 3-4 minutes\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Teashop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56809603531136,"sku":"CH-TS-029","price":1.18,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/7058\/2426\/files\/11626.970_2x_4d64d39d-7a19-45bd-9357-fa33b43c31cb.png?v=1762163971","url":"https:\/\/tea-mail.pl\/en\/products\/yixing-hong-cha-aa-2025","provider":"Tea Mail Poland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
