Early spring material, traditionally processed by local tea masters transformed into an exquisite tea with unique flavour profile.

ORGANOLEPTIC
This tea is made from young tiny buds and leaves carefully rolled by hands to save their beautiful shape. It has an original aroma and taste what makes its flavour profile quite unique and very pleasant. Dry tea leaves have a sweet fragrance full of herbal and floral motivs as well as baked and seaweed notes. From the first sight tea brings you feelings of meadow during summer day. After warming tea leaves aroma develop into bakery, biscuits, dried herbs and a little bit of vegetal notes. After rinsing aroma opens up into a rich sea motifs. The colour of infusion is light jade with yellow tones and a little bit perly. The taste is rich and deep with salty, vegetal, pumpkin seed, seaweed notes. Refreshing and sweet aftertaste brings a great sensation what makes this tea incredibly multifaceted. Enjoy your empty cup with sugary sweet fragrance full of creamy and buttery notes.

Gentle Umami.
