Lazika Black Tea

What is black tea?

White, green, and black teas are all made from the buds and upper leaves of the 'Camellia Sinensis' tea plant. Black tea, unlike green and white tea, is tea in which the leaves are fully oxidized and undergo a fermentation process.

Lazika Black Tea

Lazika black tea is characterized by being made from what we call the 'May tea,' the first harvest after winter. It's the first crop harvested after winter, made from the freshest, highest-quality tea leaves nourished by melting snow. Because the tea is harvested during these months, it's known as the May harvest or May shoot.

Special Production Process

It is obtained from the top leaves, known as 2.5 leaves, which are cut with scissors. Because the leaves pass through sieves numbered 2 and 3, being filtered twice, fresh tea leaves remain at the top, resulting in a high-quality, clear, and dust-free tea with a rich aroma. It contains no added tea extracts or flavorings.

Lazika Bergamot Flavored Black Tea

Lazika black tea is produced by adding a natural bergamot flavor to the tea we know. By using 1% bergamot flavor, the bergamot taste is imparted to the black tea without losing the tea's own aroma and flavor.

Lazika Black Tea Bergamot-Orange

Lazika is produced by adding 1% bergamot flavor to black tea, along with 1% of the natural flavor of dried orange peels.

Lazika Highland Tea Black Tea

Highland tea is a valuable herb from the Kaçkar highlands, consumed by the local people for its medicinal properties, and is part of the highland tradition. It lightens the color of black tea while giving it a natural aroma, making it an indispensable tea for those who don't prefer strong tea.

How to Brew Black Tea?

In a standard-sized teapot, pour 3-4 tablespoons of Lazika black tea over 100-degree boiling water (this amount may vary depending on the teapot and the number of people, so it's best to determine it yourself), reduce the heat, and your tea will be ready after 17 minutes. The important point here is to pour the tea over the boiling water so that it doesn't burn and allows the tea to settle slowly at the bottom during brewing.
