Description
Green tea, picked from trees of the first English plantations, 80-100 years old. Really interesting tea with pine, resin, and the power of the puer teas. They hand-picked the leaves in the early spring of 2021. As a result of the longer withering, the rustic, old-tree leaves softened and smoother tastes born. They make this tea organic, only in small quantities. We taste it with joy.
Tasting notes:
The calm smell of the leaves gives some pine, resin, and floweriness with perfumes. In the first pouring, we also find some basil and tomato. We soonly feel the puer-like effect of it, as the calm, awake presence comes. Later on, some citrus aroma appears with a bit of rhubarb. Due to the old bushes, this tea is a really strong one with good meditative effects.
