If you enjoy exotic flavors, this tea is for you!  Our hosts, Red Leaf Tea, have found this zesty and stimulating Wild Monkey Marsala imported from China (and available online here).  Starting with a basic Chinese black tea and adding a few light spices such as cinnamon and allspice, the blend is then infused with a good dose of marsala wine.  While wine infused teas are often interesting and delicate, this one may have you wondering if the crafters have gone a bit overboard!  Have no fear!  The marsala is properly in the background of the flavor, although the wine makes the leave’s aroma amazingly complex.  The brew can take a bit of cream, but do NOT add lemon!  For a terrific and spicy brew, try the Wild Monkey!
