Best Tea and Honey Which to Choose? Green or Black?
A quintet of premium tea flavors for all occasions!
When you enjoy a dinner at a Japanese restaurant, you will almost certainly enjoy a cup of green tea, such as these, at the start of the meal. With it ability to improve digestion and its mellow blend of grassy and earthy flavor notes, green tea certainly is perfect for a meal of lightly sauced and accented food. Black tea, on the other hand, is rosy and floral in flavor, like the ones here at our online store, Red Leaf Tea. It can stand up to much stronger mixes of food, including salty and sugary flavors. The English knew what they were doing when they created the afternoon tea. The meal is generally served with a small sandwich or pastry, and the sugar-coated confections and cold meats stand up well to the flavors of the brew. Heavy breakfasts of eggs and other Western fare also can blend in well with tea. Keep this in mind when choosing a tea (or a wine) for a meal – delicate teas for delicate foods, strong teas for strong flavors. Get the best of both worlds with the European Sampler, a combined package of black and green teas offered here at our Red Leaf store!
