Rose Black Tea

Rose Black Tea – Smooth Red Tea with Natural Rose Aroma

Yunnan Black Tea with Organic Rose Petals and Natural Flavoring
Floral • Comforting • Naturally Enhanced

A fragrant, gently flavored rose tea with depth and softness.

This Rose Black Tea combines Yunnan Dian Hong (滇红) black tea with organic rose petals and a touch of natural flavoring to gently enhance its floral character. Similar to Milk Oolong in process, this tea is not traditionally scented but flavored after production—resulting in a smoother, sweeter rose experience with consistent aroma and no bitterness.

It’s warm, elegant, and comforting—a soft floral tea with the depth of red tea and the ease of a naturally flavored cup. No added sugar or artificial perfumes—just clean, floral warmth in every sip.

Clarifying Note on Flavoring

This is a flavored tea, not a traditional naturally scented tea. Like Milk Oolong, its signature aroma comes from natural flavoring, not added sugars or artificial perfumes. The flavoring is food-safe and subtle, chosen to complement—not mask—the character of the base tea.
