This most extraordinary tea is harvested before the first rains come to the slopes of the Korean mountains.
The freshest of leaves are first steamed and then roasted, which gives them a balanced flavour combining the creamy sweetness of a light chinese oolong with the freshness of a japanese gyokuro. Smooth, rounded and with a complex finish, we were delighted with this tea, even up to the fourth brew.
This tea is produced under certified Organic Cultivation methods.

Wow, this is great. I didn’t even realise tea was grown in Korea. When you brew the tea, it’s a natural golden yellow colour. The processing of steaming and roasting gives it a really interesting flavour. Even after three pots (the leaves re-steep really well!) I find it hard to describe. It’s certainly earthy. The roast flavours are there but it is nowhere near as strong as your average houjicha. It would suit someone who likes oolongs, houjicha, genmaicha, that kind of thing. Struggling as I am to describe the flavour, the only thing I can think of is sawdust. That sounds like a terrible insult but it’s not. I’m picturing my Dad’s garden shed when he had a carpentry project on. It’s homely, it’s musty, it saturates your tastebuds, and it has the life of the trees distilled down into powder. God, that doesn’t make any sense at all. Just try it for yourself, you will love it.
