Tasting Notes
From our Chief Tea Taster

Aroma
Uplifted notes of apricot and drupes, accented with a gentle honeyed sweetness
Appearance
Amber
Taste
A medium-bodied, supple cup that opens with bright, fruity notes—led by ripe apricot and nectarine. Gentle zesty undertones and a hint of soft woodiness add freshness and depth.
As it evolves, a mellow sweetness rounds out the cup, lending balance and finesse. The finish is smooth and clean, with a musky trail that lingers softly.
