Pro tip: Feel free to experiment with water amounts, temperature, steeping time, tea quantity, and sweetener quantity to find your perfect balance.

The Tea Mystic Says

An incredible black tea made of gold and copper colored fine haired young downy buds, gives aroma like dark cocoa and dried apple skin, when dry. When steeped, this precious kind produces a golden amber hue with a texture that is extremely velvety and smooth, churning out a nutty taste close to popcorn and roasted peanuts while in your mouth, finishing with a soft floral slow release. Incredibly smooth and refined tea that could swing your mood towards meditation!

Methods to Brew Tea

We believe that your tea experience should be completely personal. Individual taste buds are unique and there is no right or wrong way to brew tea. Therefore we encourage tea lovers to not necessarily bind to traditional methods but let their experience, and discovery guide them. After all, that is where the joy of drinking tea lies. You should try different amounts of tea, steeping time, and water temperature to find the perfect taste you’ll fall in love with.
