Hawaii Grown Black Tea – Forest Grown Aloha Aina Tea in Paper Filter Bags (1 oz)

Grown in the native rainforest of Volcano, Hawai‘i

Black tea is fully oxidized, giving it a rich color and robust flavor. Crafted through careful withering, rolling, and oxidation, it reveals complex layers of aroma and depth that reflect both the leaf and the land it comes from.

Bold, smooth, and grounded with warmth, this Hawaii black tea is hand-harvested from mature tea leaves grown beneath the misty canopy on the summit of Kilauea Volcano. Tea Hawaii & Company tends each plant with intention, letting the volcanic soil, filtered light, and forest moisture infuse the leaves with character unique to Hawai‘i.
