Hand-plucked at the height of the season, this exceptional tea showcases an exquisite tapestry of delicately twisted ebony leaves generously interwoven with shimmering golden buds, a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and uncompromising quality.
As the leaves unfurl, they yield a brilliant amber infusion that captivates both the eye and the senses.

Its naturally honeyed sweetness is complemented by luscious stone fruit, caramelized sugar, and subtle floral undertones, while a gentle mineral character lends elegance and complexity. The liquor possesses a luxurious, silky body that envelops the palate before giving way to an exceptionally long, clean finish, leaving behind lingering notes of sweet malt, wildflowers, and delicate cocoa.
