“Boiling water? For a green? Well, I have seen that once or twice before, so I gave it a go. I was expecting an awful lot of this, and braced myself for a sour or astringent cup of tea. Surprise...” Read full tasting note

Description

Over 100 years ago, tea planters brought their finest ancestral tea bushes from China and India to Wadmalaw Island near the historic old city of Charleston, South Carolina. Now the direct descendants of these very plants have been lovingly restored to their former grandeur here at the Charleston Tea Garden, a lush subtropical tea farm. It is in this context of great natural beauty and colonial pride that we bring you Charleston Tea Garden Wadmalaw Green Tea made from 100% tea grown at America’s own tea garden. Island Green Tea is carefully crafted to be America’s unique and refreshing version of a classic, centuries-old beverage.

Ingredients: South Carolina-grown green tea

Instructions: Steep 2-3 minutes
