Bug Bitten - Cicada Tea
Cicada tea is a variety of so-called "bug bitten" teas from Taiwan.
The best-known representatives of this special type of tea are probably Honey Oolong, Dongfang Meiren Oriental Beauty Oolong and Gui Fei Oolong tea.
In the production of these teas you rely on the support of nature. The tea leaves are nibbled by cicadas, which means that the tea plant produces more polyphenols.
This leads to the taste of wild honey and dried fruits with a slightly woody note, which is so typical for these teas.
The brewed tea shimmers gold - amber colors in the tea bowl.
