Organic Black Fannings tea

Organic Black Fannings Tea is a fine-grade black tea sourced from China’s renowned tea gardens. “Fannings” refers to the small, uniform leaf particles that remain after larger leaf grades have been sorted. While whole-leaf teas are prized for their appearance, fannings are valued in the industry for their fast extraction, consistent strength, and bold flavor — making them the workhorse of the commercial tea world.

Flavor Profile

Black fannings produce a strong, full-bodied cup with robust malty notes and a clean, brisk finish. The small particle size allows for rapid extraction, delivering a deep, dark liquor in a short steeping time. This makes fannings ideal for commercial applications where consistency and speed matter.

How to Brew Black Fannings

Use one teaspoon per 8 ounces of boiling water. Steep for 2 to 4 minutes — fannings brew faster than whole-leaf grades, so check frequently to avoid over-extraction. The resulting cup is bold, dark, and satisfying. Takes milk and sweetener well.

Ideal for Tea Brands and Manufacturers

Black fannings are the industry standard for:

• Commercial tea bags (standard, round, and pyramid sachet formats)
• Ready-to-drink (RTD) bottled and canned tea production
• Restaurant and food service bulk brewing
• Iced tea concentrate production
• Breakfast blend and everyday tea formulations

The consistent particle size ensures uniform extraction across large batches, making fannings the most reliable format for high-volume tea production.
