Explore the charm of oxidation of black tea

I saw a video about iTeaworld's black tea samples on Instagram and was instantly attracted. As someone who is very interested in the oxidation degree of black tea, I immediately bought the iTeaworld black tea sample set to try black teas with different oxidation degrees.

After tasting it, I was not disappointed! This sample pack covers black teas from light to highly oxidized, each with its own unique flavor and aroma. Especially Yunnan black tea, its high oxidation degree makes the tea soup present a rich reddish brown color, with a mellow and full taste. You can feel a deep tea fragrance and subtle sweetness as soon as you put it in your mouth, as if you are tasting the essence of nature.

This attempt not only gave me a deeper understanding of black tea, but also made me find my favorite taste. I think iTeaworld's black tea sample is a very worthwhile product. Whether you are a black tea lover or a novice, you can find your own cup from it.

Healthy and delicious: First experience with iTeaworld black tea samples

As someone who has been used to drinking Lipton tea bags for many years, I recently decided to switch to loose leaf tea at the suggestion of a friend in pursuit of a healthier lifestyle. However, faced with a wide variety of black teas, I felt a little overwhelmed. So, I chose iTeaworld's black tea samples to taste one by one, and this choice did not disappoint me.

Among the many samples, Lapsang Souchong is undoubtedly my favorite. It has an elegant taste, warm and sweet tea soup, and a pleasant nectar aroma, as if every sip is gently telling the beauty of nature. Compared with the tea bags I drank before, the loose leaf tea has a richer sense of layering, and the tea aroma and taste are also purer.

iTeaworld's black tea samples not only made me discover the unique flavor of Lapsang Souchong, but also opened up a new understanding of loose leaf tea. Each of the four samples represents a unique flavor, allowing me to move forward step by step in exploring the world of tea. For tea lovers who want to switch from tea bags to loose leaf tea, this small sample set is an ideal entry choice. Not only can they experience the diversity of different varieties of black tea, but they can also find the one that best suits their taste.

Yunnan Red Tea’s Mellow Sweetness

Absolutely love every tea in the iTeaworld Red Tea Sampler, especially the Yunnan Red Tea. It reminds me of the English Breakfast Tea and Assam milk tea I usually drink, but with less bitterness and a sweeter, smoother taste—even without adding any sweeteners, honey, or milk. Living in the UK, where the water is hard and supermarket tea bags often brew bitter tea, I'm amazed by how mellow and malty this Yunnan tea is. It’s like walking through a park filled with autumn leaves—tranquil and surprisingly delightful. I’ll definitely recommend it to my friends!

Chinese black tea sample collection: a rich taste journey

My love for black tea reached new heights during my travels in China. Having recently tried iTeaworld's black tea sample collection, I was delighted to find that their quality was on par with the black teas I tasted in China. The Yingde black tea, in particular, was unforgettable for its richness and smoothness. The tea was full-bodied with a sweet aroma, and every sip was an immersion in the rich tea flavor. The other black tea varieties were equally satisfying, showing a high level of quality in both taste and aroma. This sample collection is a perfect choice for Chinese black tea lovers.

A Thoughtful and Delightful Black Tea Sampler Experience!

How thoughtful variety in iTeaworld’s red tea sampler! Not only do you get to experience different Chinese black teas, but the packaging also includes helpful brewing instructions. They even provide complimentary biodegradable tea bags, so you can DIY your perfect cup without dealing with loose leaves. The teas are top quality, miles better than supermarket teabags. I especially enjoy the contrast between the smoky and non-smoky Souchong black tea—both are delightful in their own way. iTeaworld never fails to surprise and delight me. Thank you!
