Description

Once heated the dry leaf aroma includes pumpkin seeds, greens and a little bit of bael fruit. Water is best heated to 73℃. The liquor is a light green colour with a slight almost turquoise tone. The taste is light, gentle and well-balanced. The flavour composition includes spinach, kiwi, cherries, bamboo, freshly cut grass and lilac. And maybe a little bit of basil, plumb, mint and lili. The aftertaste is sweet-and-sour but not long lasting. A refreshing tea that helps to restore energy levels and wind down.
