From tea bushes cultivated on the region's highest mountains, this renowned tea is produced from a fine harvest of delicate buds.
The smooth, cloudy liquor has a fruity and floral bouquet reminiscent of litchi. Upon tasting, this bright cup reveals its astringency, distinctness, and aromatic complexity. The floral and herbaceous notes run from toasted hazelnuts to straw, leaving a fresh miny finish.
A fortifying and generous tea.
