Initial impression from this taiwanese highland wulong is an aroma of ground-cherry and wheat-grass which evolves into fresh vanilla and flowers. Rich creamy texture with sweet final notes of coconut.

The distinct finish on these elegant pieces is created using a clay powder in the glaze.
These fine Makiko teapots have a unique soft glaze. The cracked finish will evolve with each infusion as the tannins enter the cracks and enrich the overall finish.
To learn more about the approach of the artist, see the article devoted to it in our tea tasters blog.
The craft used for these teapots makes each one unique so colour gradients and format will vary from one to another. The true beauty of artisanal work.

Cup from Makiko | Poppy
Much like abstract art, Makiko's spotting and clouding glazes evoke as many things as there are people to look at it. Landscapes, sweets, burning balloons... feel free to gaze all you want.

This black tea, a recent innovation of Mr He, is composed of long curly leaves decorated with golden buds. In infusion, rich chocolate and gourmet notes (peanut oil) stimulate our senses. Its coppery and smooth liquor unfolds on the palate with an amazing complexity, combining tart, sweet and even umami (oyster) with its nuances of root vegetables (parsnips) and spices. A silky tea from beginning to end. To learn more about this product, see this blog article.
