Oliver Puff Colonial Bohea Tea 3oz

Colonial Bohea- Loose Tea in Signature Tea Tin

Description:  A black tea blend of pekoe, orange pekoe, and souchong (lightly smoked) tea leaves.  Bohea (pronounced "Boo-Hee") was the most popular tea among the colonial Americans and for a time the word bohea was even substituted as the word for tea in general.  In colonial times, this tea was typically a blend of cheaper grade teas, although it was considered a high-quality tea.  

Notes:  Smoky, winey, warm.  Lighter smoky flavor than lapsang souchong.

History:  In the Boston Tea Party, 1586 chests of Bohea were destroyed.  

Size/Weight:  3oz loose tea, sealed in matte black signature tea tin
