Oliver Pluff & Co. Colonial Bohea Black Tea | Complex, Smokey, Strong | Loose Leaf | 3 oz
- COLONIAL BOHEA - Pronounced “Boo-hee”, the hand-picked leaves of this historical black tea variety blend beautifully to display aromas of orange and wine, all while carrying with it a distinctive warmth and smokey feel. Our 3 oz Bohea loose leaf comes in our signature matte black, air tight tins to help keep your teas fresh for longer.
- A TASTE OF HISTORY - Bred among volcanic rock in the harsh mountainside terrain of the Wuyi Mountains, Bohea was by far the largest tea import in colonial times. So popular that the word Bohea became slang for tea, its fragrant, high-quality elegance was revelled by the colonists in the New World. Bohea was traded heavily by the British and Dutch East India Companies, and extensively smuggled during the resistance that led to the Boston Tea Party.
- RICH & SMOKEY - Reminiscent of a crisp morning vivid with fiery foliage, the warmth of Bohea dampens the dewy chill and politely reminds you to appreciate the gift of stillness before the day begins. Fragrant and vivacious, this caffeinated tea is perfect for early conversations, afternoon council, and everything in between.

Colonial Bohea- 3oz Loose Tea in Signature Tea Tin. Description: Bohea tea, (pronounced "Boo-hee" - Ukers 510), was by far the largest tea import during colonial times. Sometimes called Bohea Souchong or Lapsang Bohea, the blend originated in China with trade to the British and Dutch East India Companies. It was so popular that the word bohea became the slang term for tea. The blend varied wildly, consisting of broken orange pekoe, pekoe, and souchong dumped in a pile and then sifted, typically the scrap tea of lower quality leaves, but was considered high quality by the colonists. Notes: Smoky, winey, warm. Lighter smoky flavor than lapsang souchong. History: In the Boston Tea Party, 1586 chests of Bohea were destroyed. Source: Oliver Pluff & Co. offers the historical black tea bohea blend. Originally from the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian, China, the name Bohea is the same as the name Wuyi (æ¦å¤·). The modern tea market offers tea from the Bohea (Wuyi) region, as well as the historical black tea blend version. Size/Weight: 3oz loose tea, sealed in matte black signature tea tin.
