Completely hand-produced by Mrs. Leila, who at thirty-fives years of age, represents the future of the Georgian tea industry. Mrs. Leila’s mother-in-law Zia, passed along the family’s tea producing techniques and secrets so Mrs. Leila could continue the family’s tradition of producing high quality hand-made teas from their small family garden.

The sourcing of this rare tea was only possible through our close connections to a contact in Poland, who is friends with a specialist Czech importer of Georgian tea who has close connections to many of Georgia’s skilled tea producers.
