Are you looking for a tea that corresponds to the idea of wellness? We have got the suitable composition for you. Aloa Vera is known because of its positive characteristics and effects on the overall well-being. This green tea will seduce you with its harmonic taste of a ripe pineapple with a dash of cream. Being richly decorated, this tea offers a real taste sensation.
We are glad to offer you this classic once again! After production, yet beforethe drying process, the „Sencha leaf” is crushed to a pulp and, after addition of rice flour, it is pressed into its traditional form. This green tea thus presents its unmistakeable, regular, pine needle-like appearance. Our Kokeicha has an anthracite leaf and develops an intense, bitter flavour with a citrus-coloured, slightly opaque cup.
Worldwide there are roughly 150 types of dittany (family "Sideretis") of which the vast majority grows in the Mediterran region. The majority of these members of the labiate family grow wild, only some vatieties are cultivated. Greek Mountain tea is rich in essential oils and its blossoms, stems and leaves set free the scent of fresh herbs with a hint of lemon when infused. The taste is fruity, herb with a slight spicy, earthy note and best enjoyed hot or cold and sweetened with a little sugar or honey.
The famous Japanese speciality has also found friends in China. With the right leaves and a similar processing method, similar success can be offered at a highly attractive price. The leaves in this case have a dark green colour and are medium-sized with brighter spots. The spinach-green infusion clearly resembles the original. The taste is multi-faceted. A very elegant mildness and a hint of pleasant spiceness characterise this tea. When it comes to pricing, this quality certainly does not belong to the same category as the Japanese original; however it surely is a winner in its category.
Singell is one of the oldest tea plantations among the approximately 70 tea gardens in Darjeeling. The plantation has been producing teas from controlled organic cultivation since the mid-80s. The infusion has the bright bronze colour, which is typical of Darjeeling teas from the second plucking period. The regular, short leaf is procesed very carefully and has many silvery tips. The full and very aromatic second flush fascinates with its soft and velvety muscatel flavour.
Like all tea rarities, the Palace or Ocean Green Needle is produced with utmost caution and care. Harvested in the Province of Hubei in mid-April, only the finest leaves and the buds are plucked, steamed, dried, sieved and re-selected again before packaging. Of particular importance are the differing temperatures used: as opposed to hot steam, the subsequent drying is rather moderate in temperature so as to conserve the nice colour and taste of the tea.
The Japanese traditionally drink this tea with their meals, and it is considered a classical everyday tea. The large-leaved tea is taken from the lower shoots of the plant. The leaves are rich in minerals, but it contain up to 70 per cent less caffeine than the „Gyokuro” teas, which are won from the young shoots. After brewing, the evenly worked leaf shows its real quality and its fine leaf structure. The taste is very soft, discreet, and slightly grassy. The discreet note makes this tea perfectly suitable both for green tea beginners and lovers.
A top speciality and a real rarity! This nice, fine, pine needle-shaped leaf with many silvery tips comes from the central highlands, south of the city of Kandy in the Dimbula district. The taste is highly aromatic and spicy with a note of its own, reminiscent of mild, malty Assam leaf teas. The cup is dark red with a malty and spicy bouquet. Everyone who loves exquisite qualities must try this tea at least once!
RARITY!!!
The Marybong Tea Estate is situated in the East Valley. This rather small garden produces top qualities every year on a cultivated area of approximately 285 hectares, at altitudes between 1,200 and 1,970 m. This is a well-balanced, aromatically sweet plucking featuring a certain "body" with some strength. The leaves are smaller, fine, and dark with green parts and bright tips. The cup's colour is the typical light copper of a tea of the late first flush period.
