Tasting Notes
From our Chief Tea Taster

Aroma
Warm, with notes of caramel, toasted nuts, and a whisper of stewed stone fruit
Appearance
Bright amber
Taste
A richly expressive cup with a velvety mouthfeel. The first sip opens with sweet notes of stone fruits — evocative of ripe apricot — followed by deeper tones of cocoa.
Mid-palate reveals hints of grapes and cedar, while gentle tannins lend structure without overpowering. The finish is clean, rounded, and faintly nutty, leaving behind a satisfying, honeyed aftertaste that lingers on — a memorable summer cup from this vintage plantation.
