Imperial Cacao Loose Leaf Black Tea is an extraordinary black tea sourced from ancient wild Camellia taliensis trees in the remote mountains of Yunnan Province, China—a land of legendary Chinese teas with a heritage stretching back millennia. Unlike the more common Camellia sinensis, these rare taliensis trees are believed to be among the oldest tea tree species on Earth, some estimated to be over 1,000 years old. Growing wild in pristine forests at high elevations, these trees produce leaves with a unique chemical composition that creates a flavor profile unlike any other tea.
This exceptional Imperial Cacao (Yunnan Red) tea is hand-picked during the spring harvest and carefully processed using traditional methods that have been passed down through generations. The result is a tea with abundant golden tips and a naturally sweet, cocoa-rich character that requires no added flavoring. Imperial Cacao is a rare treasure for tea connoisseurs—a testament to the ancient wisdom of wild tea trees and the skilled artisans who transform their leaves into liquid gold.

My order was running late, so Renee was so kind to work with me. She not only got the order out, but sent me a complimentary tea as a gift. We tried our first tea and it is fabulous, with this unusual but wonderful smoky flavor. So far, we’re extremely thrilled with the tea we purchased. Thanks to Renee for the excellent service.
Order 1032. I have never received my order. I have been waiting since May 24th. I want to know where my order is. I'm very angry.

Very knowledgeable; great instructor!
This was a great experience and very informative about tea and the tea industry! We had fun!
I had an amazing time at the Art of The Blend event. No only did a learn alot, customer service was great, and the tea was simply divine. I created 3 of my own blend and bought extra tea to bring home. The owner Ms. Renee was relatable and knowledgeable.
The 'Imagination Tea' is an aromatic blend that truly lives up to its name. The green tea base is smooth, and the tangerine flavor adds a bright, uplifting citrus note that instantly refreshes the senses. The lemon verbena and lemongrass give it a soothing, spa-like finish, making each sip feel calming and luxurious. As an avid tea drinker, I highly recommend!
