These qualities, combined with its well-documented Green Tea benefits, ensure its popularity among casual drinkers and connoisseurs alike. Indeed, this is an excellent starting point for anyone new to Green Tea.
Gunpowder Green Tea 125g
Reputations are seldom better than that of Gunpowder Green Tea. This delectable infusion, made up of small, round ‘pellets’, unfurls before one’s eyes while brewing.
These artfully shaped Tea leaves boast a distinctive earthy-grassy fusion of flavour. It comes from the Zhejiang province, where local climatic conditions make for perfect Tea. Find out for yourself with this flavoursome and nutritious beverage.
Japanese Sencha Genmai Cha 125g
This unusual blend, sometimes called ‘Popcorn Tea’, is a mixture of Japanese Bancha Green Tea and toasted brown rice. Originally, it was a beverage drunk by the poor who added rice to the infusion for the purpose of frugality.
Today, however, most choose to drink it because it tastes great. Indeed, the toasted rice gives it a nutty, buttery quality. The Tea itself, meanwhile, adds a slight astringency, creating a complex character unlike any other.
Yunnan Special White Tea 125g
The Yunnan province produces some of the most popular Teas in the world. Our Yunnan Special White Tea, in particular, is one of the most sought-after. It grows at altitudes between 1,300 and 2,000 feet, which contributes significantly to its delicate yet divine taste.
The large loose leaves are light green in colour, with plenty of silvery tips. When brewed, they have a soft, mild flavour with fruity and floral undertones.
Pai Mu Tan White Tea 125g
This is one of the most popular White Teas in the world. Period. It comes from Fujian in China, a province that grows 336 different varieties of Camellia sinensis (Tea plant). It also shares a 1,600-year-old history with Tea-growing, with Pai Mu Tan White Tea being one of its finest creations.
This White Tea, also known as White Peony, has long, elegant leaves. Its unique flavour carries lightly on the palate, offering fresh, grassy notes with every sip.
