We are delighted to announce the return of this exceptional tea after a brief hiatus. Originally crafted in collaboration with esteemed Taiwanese tea experts, this exquisite oolong represents one of the finest productions from Jun Chiyabari, our premier organic Nepali tea partner.

Each sip offers a harmonious blend of sweet vegetal notes, delicate floral hints, and a subtle buttery finish, creating an unparalleled tasting experience. Please note, this is a limited small-batch production; we encourage you to secure your supply promptly.

DRY LEAF: Medium sized wiry leaf, dark green with brown/grey. Slight floral aroma. 

WET LEAF: The leaf more prominently reveals its darker green-brown hues after infusion, indicating an overall a mid-level oxidation. A nose of floral sweetness and cinnamon hints.

CUP: A golden liquor with a sweet vegetal fragrance. The cup has a medium body, smooth with no astringency. The flavors feel pure and one is left feeling uplifted by this tea!
