2nd Place, Flavored Dark/Pu-erh

Bolder Breakfast is a unique and beloved award-winning breakfast blend with a robust taste and very high caffeine content that will kick your coffee habit to the curb.

Three strong black teas and a pu-erh combine to produce a deep, dark liquor and a warmly-rounded flavor, exceptionally complemented by milk and perfect for indulging in a tea latte.

This soothing but striking chamomile blend is an expert pairing of Croatian chamomile blossoms, refreshing spearmint, lemon verbena, and the sharpness of lemongrass.

Laoshan is a small village near the sea in northeast China. Teas from this region benefit from a unique microclimate featuring coastal breezes, rocky soil, and fresh spring water.

Laoshan black teas are usually small and tippy, lacking the white pekoe-style hairs that give black teas their golden color.

Classic Laoshan Black, grown under the shadow of a sacred mountain, is very smooth and viscous with a robust flavor that has a distinct dark chocolate bite.

People often question whether sugar was added to this tea, but it's simply the weather and soil that make this tea naturally sweet and thick.

Classic Laoshan Black is one of our personal favorites at Tea Runners. It's a tea we always have on our shelf at home!

If you love this tea, you may also want to check out the more expensive versions, including Imperial Grade Laoshan Black and Laoshan Village Black Needles. Both have a similar flavor profile, but undergo more strict plucking and processing, creating slightly different flavor profiles.

This robust tea bursts with the bright vegetal notes of spring. It steeps to a thick liquor with notes of green grass and toasted nuts, easing to an ever-so-slightly sweet finish.

Classic Laoshan Green may be stronger than most green teas you re used to, but its overall smoothness and elegance makes it a real crowd-pleaser.

Spring 2026 Harvest

English Breakfast Reserve is a step up from your average English Breakfast tea because it is blended with a higher grade specialty tea leaves.

Full leaf tea is often considered superior because it retains more of its natural oils and compounds, leading to a richer, more complex flavor and aroma. The whole leaves allow for a slower, more even release of flavors, resulting in a smoother and less bitter taste.

Additionally, full leaf tea tends to be of higher quality, with more antioxidants and nutrients preserved compared to broken leaf tea. It can also be re-steeped multiple times, offering a varied tea-drinking experience.

English Breakfast Reserve is produced from the most-awarded tea company in the world. It is an organic blend of high grade Assam (India), Ceylon (Sri Lanka), and specialty Keemun (China) black teas.

It brews a strong and flavorful cup with notes of decadent caramel.

Genmaicha (meaning brown rice tea ) was discovered centuries ago when Japanese monks brewed green tea in their rice cauldrons. This particular high-end genmaicha uses green tea superior in quality and roasted sticky rice to create toasty aromas and a rich, nutty sweetness.

Don't blame us if you become as addicted as we did-- it'll have you swooning. We recommend experimenting with tea/water ratio, water temp, and steep times to get it just how you like it.

Lady Lavender, also known as Lavender Lady, is an Earl Grey tea infused with lavender and vanilla but ours comes with an extra twist.

This graceful blend starts with robust organic black tea, brightened by the citrusy lift of bergamot, softened with the soothing floral touch of fragrant lavender, and rounded out with a hint of creamy vanilla. What makes it truly unique is the addition of sweet, citrusy orange peel, adding a refreshing brightness to every sip.

Delicious and aromatic, Lady Lavender is a welcome addition to any Earl Grey lover s tea collection.

Autumn s beauty comes alive in the reds, golds, and oranges of sugar maple trees, and this blend celebrates the beloved flavor of maple syrup!

Truly heavenly!

Sweet prickly pear is the first note to greet you, followed by a subtle blend of dry herbs and delicate florals reminiscent of the desert in bloom after a spring rain. The result is a balanced, layered aroma that's both refreshing and uniquely Southwestern.

This fervent Yunnan black tea has the familiar notes of bittersweet chocolate like other black teas from the Wu Liang Mountains, but with the complexities and lingering smoothness of an expertly crafted oolong.

Highly aromatic with a clear tea liquor brewing to a lovely deep golden hue, this tea's subtlety is most appreciated in its natural state.

Due to its higher levels of oxidization, this tea can be stored for several years, but it's so delicious we don't think that will be possible!

Spring 2026 Harvest.

One of our favorite oolongs, this spectacular tea is lightly oxidized but still hefty on floral complexity with little to no astringency.

We love its complicated combination of roasted stone fruit, unsweetened coconut, and firewood, with a deliciously rich and buttery, creamy aftertaste.

It also withstands multiple infusions.

Imperial Grade Laoshan Black is the highest grade version of the already high grade Classic Laoshan Black.

This tea comes from the small family farm of the Liang family where all the growing and processing is done on site, under their strict control, to produce the highest quality result.

What separates this tea from the Classic Laoshan Black is that it's produced from the smallest tippy materials of the tea plants, which are hand selected one leaf at a time during the picking process and set aside for this small batch of tea.

This tea starts its growth under the protection of a greenhouse in the winter and early spring, then it's exposed to direct sunlight until picking season starts in late April to early May.

This tea is wonderfully sweet and thick, with notes of cane sugar and chocolate.

One of our favorites!

May 2026 Harvest

We also recommend checking out our Laoshan Village Black Needles. A similar and wonderfully delicious tea.

Silver Needles are among one of China's most famous and most prized teas. Only the first flush top buds are picked from the plant very early in the season, giving special care not to cause any damage or breakage to the bud. They are then dried in the sun.

Silver Needles are a very pure form of tea with little to no oxidation. It produces a lovely cup of very lightly colored tea, with a gorgeous array of sweet and subtle flavors.

We love enjoying this beautiful white tea in the early afternoon.

In the end, this tea produces a vibrant brew of fresh eucalyptus and sweet honey notes.

All these things combined create a blend that's truly on top of the world!
