Steep 1 – 10 seconds

The tea leaves whilst raw is dark green and brown in colour and curled into c shapes. They smell earthy yet sweetly floral.

Golden yellow in colour with an earthy and floral scent. The first few sips are toasty but fresh with a little sweetness. The notes state this tea to be ‘honey toned’ and I can understand why, it’s an earthy sort of honey.
