Caykur Filiz black tea

Caykur Filiz tea is a classic black tea from Rize, grown on ecologically clean plantations on the Black Sea coast of Turkey. The word "Filiz" means "young shoot", and it is these very tender leaves that are used to create this drink. This tea has a soft, noble taste and a pure aroma without impurities.

The taste is delicate, velvety, with a slight tartness. The aroma is clean, fresh, with light honey-floral notes. The infusion is light amber, transparent.
