in black, please The factory was founded in the 1920s. After the tea production process is completed, selection begins. This selection results in three types of tea, depending on the quality of the leaves that gave rise to them. The most perfect and strong tea is the so-called "Orange Pekoe", obtained only from the bud and the first leaf of the bud. This denomination was a tribute to the Dutch princes of the House of Orange, the first on the European continent to market the tea. The second term refers to the Chinese language meaning "young".
