Spring Green Tea
Bursting with vibrant grassy flavours, a sublime natural sweetness and a satisfying silky texture, green tea has been a connoisseur drink in the East for centuries. Early picked spring green teas are highly prized as they come from the young, fresh buds of the tea plant’s first shoots. The low temperatures of early spring result in slower plant growth and are thus richer in flavour and deliciously tender.

Dragon Well Green Tea
China’s most famous tea, Dragon Well is also known as ‘Longjing’. During the Qing Dynasty it was declared an ‘imperial’ tea by the emperor and has remained in the spotlight ever since. The youngest, freshest buds are plucked in the spring before the Qingming festival and pan-fried by hand in dry, hot basins, giving the leaf its iconic ‘spear’ shape and sweet, nutty flavour. The rich soils and terroir of the protected area of Hangzhou, Zhejing imparts a refreshing brew with sharp long lasting fragrance, full bodied, sweet and toasty.

High Mountain Oolong Tea
With none of the bitterness of green teas and with little astringency, these are delicate teas made to be enjoyed just as they are time and time again. Rich in potassium, manganese and other trace minerals, this tea is the perfect winter drink, a great tonic and perfect complement to green tea. Unlike the Iron Buddha (Tieguanyin) oolong which is tightly rolled into ball-shaped, this oolong is long and curly and fragile as they have been heavily roasted.

Iron Buddha Oolong Tea
Also known as Iron Goddess or Tie Guan Yin is among the best and most popular oolong teas in the world. The tea is named after Guanyin (or Kannon) the bodhisattva of compassion and mercy. This medium bodied tea has a very refined and complex flavour - sweet with some floral notes. There is a very light creaminess reminiscent of milk oolong and the aftertaste is long lasting and sweet like a sugar cookie.

These teas get their signature roasted and woody flavours from the mineral content in the soil. Savour the intricate dimensions of this medium-bodied morning time brew on its own without sugar or milk.
