Rickshaw (like Lipton) is a tea brand owned by Unilever. Rickshaw tea is sold in the Hong Kong and Singapore markets, and the brand has a long history in both cities, where many people grew up reaching for these teabags due to their convenience. When I posted pictures of these teabags on Facebook, a tea aficionado from Singapore remembered drinking the standard grade jasmine tea from Rickshaw in her youth!
These QImen black tea teabags are a higher quality, limited production run from Rickshaw, and at present, will only be on shelves for another six weeks or so. Please note I will only be able to offer this tea while it is in production. If and when these teabags are discontinued, I will no longer offer them for sale, and I will refund any buyers who purchase them right before they go out of stock.
These teabags are excellent for brewing on the move, when brewing loose leaf tea is too much effort or simply not possible (e.g, when traveling or in certain workplaces). These teabags brew a smooth, flavorful liquor with classic Keemun character and flavor, which greatly surpassed my expectations! If you enjoy Keemun tea, these teabags are surprisingly good and well worth a try while they're in production.
These teabags are Rainforest Alliance Certified.
Brewing suggestion: 90 Celsius, with water of suitable hardness. Brew for 3-5 minutes in a teacup.
Wholesale discounts are available on this tea! Please contact me for details.
