Choice leaf pluck, aroma is lightly sweet and vegetal, cups to flavors of herbs and hint of fruit.
The cultivar has plenty of body, making it an excellent choice for decaffeination. The tea maker used a water process that attracts the caffeine molecules and removes them. The flavor molecules are larger than the caffeine molecules, as such, they remain intact thus preserving the natural flavor and aromas of the tea.
The leaves have been minimally milled to preserve the natural flavors and bring a richer, deeper flavor to the cup. Our sachets are made from biodegradable non-GMO corn silk.
These elegant sachets are perfect for the traveler or a relaxing cup anytime.
