O2H TEA
Black Tea Enchantment (Green tangerine Black Tea)
Black Tea Enchantment is the boldest of our Xiao Qing Gan range — a whole green Xinhui tangerine stuffed with premium black tea instead of the traditional pu-erh. The richest body, the brightest citrus contrast, and the most approachable introduction for Western black tea drinkers. Only O2H TEA produces this combination.
Classic pu-erh Xiao Qing Gan appeals to tea specialists. Black tea Xiao Qing Gan is what we designed for the broader Western palate — the malty, slightly sweet base of quality black tea pairs cleanly with the tangerine peel, giving you a morning or afternoon cup that feels familiar but looks extraordinary.
Flavour: Malty black tea body, bright tangerine zest, long sweet finish
Aroma: Fresh citrus on the dry fruit, warm malt when brewed
Caffeine: Medium–high (black tea base — most energising in the Xiao Qing Gan family)
Pairs well with: Mornings, breakfast, Western baked goods, stronger cheeses
How to brew: 95–100°C water, quick 5-second rinse, 20–40s first infusion. Re-steeps 5–7 times; extend 15 seconds per subsequent brew.
Black Tea Enchantment is the Xiao Qing Gan for morning rituals and for people new to the category who want familiar black tea flavour with an unusual visual. For the pu-erh counterpart, see Pu-erh Delight; for the lightest evening variant, see White Serenity.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this black tea special with green tangerine?
Black Tea Enchantment blends a premium black tea with vibrant Xinhui green tangerine peel, creating a sophisticated, aromatic specialty tea. The natural citrus oils from green tangerine complement the malty, robust character of quality black tea, adding brightness and complexity. This pairing creates an elegant option for those who love bold black tea but appreciate the lifting citrus notes of tangerine.
How should I brew Black Tea Enchantment?
Brew this black tea at 95–100°C (203–212°F) for 4–5 minutes. Black teas are forgiving and can typically be resteeped 3–4 times, though the flavor evolves with each infusion. For subsequent steeps, reduce the time to 2–3 minutes. You can use a simple infuser, teapot, or gaiwan. If you prefer a stronger cup, increase steeping time; for a lighter brew, reduce to 3 minutes.
What are the health benefits of this black tea blend?
Black tea is rich in antioxidants and may support heart health and energy levels. The addition of green tangerine peel brings digestive support and anti-inflammatory benefits, making this a wellness-focused option. Many enjoy this black tea blend as an afternoon pick-me-up or as part of their daily health routine. The combination creates a flavorful way to incorporate the benefits of both black tea and traditional tangerine wellness practices.
How much caffeine is in Black Tea Enchantment?
This black tea blend contains approximately 40–60mg of caffeine per 8oz cup, making it an energizing choice for morning or midday tea. Black tea naturally contains more caffeine than oolong or pu-erh, so it's ideal if you're seeking an invigorating specialty tea to start your day or power through an afternoon slump.
What's the best way to store this black tea?
Store in an airtight, opaque container away from light, heat, moisture, and strong odors. Keep at 15–25°C in a cool, dry place. Black tea is generally robust and maintains its quality for 18–24 months when stored properly. The tangerine peel flavor is best enjoyed within the first year of purchase, so we recommend brewing and savoring this specialty tea within that timeframe for peak aroma and taste.

At O2H Tea, we take pride in crafting exceptional teas like our Tangerine tea. During the aging process, you may notice a delicate 'hoarfrost' on the surface, also known as 'orange citrus oil.' This natural phenomenon is a result of the citrus oil precipitating after a sun-dried or low-temperature baking process. Rest assured, it's not mildew and poses no harm to your health. In fact, it's a testament to the quality and authenticity of our tea, enhancing its flavor and character.
