Dry Leaf Nose: Kiwi takes the lead note while the apple sweetens the nose – the tea is apparent but sits in the background.

Liquor: Green-gold liquor, clear and aromatic with fruit above the green tea.

Flavour: Kiwi notes are prominent with the citrus note supporting and adding a bit of liveliness to the mouthfeel. The apple pieces sweeten the liquor whlie the green tea notes add a soothing and classic roundness to the blend.

Dry Leaf Nose: Refreshing. Chlorophyl & tea leaves with some buttery notes.

Liquor: Clear and light green liquor with a nice vegetal aroma.

Dry Leaf Nose: Minty with cardomom and spice.

Liquor: Medium brown/medium greens, with a minty, spicy, and cardomom nose.

Flavour: Complex and sweet – a very special African Mint tea, as it incprporates more than just the usual mint and tea. The cardamom, ginger, peppercorns and mints play well together and the hojicha is an excellent and unusual base for such a tea.
