A tea from wild, centuries-old trees. Cloaked in mist at 1500 meters, these tea trees evade the eye and reveal themselves only after twelve hours of trekking through pristine wilderness, where the whisper of a river flows.
The smoothness of this white tea is expressed through its round texture, its floral and vanilla fragrances that gently melt on the palate.
This tea is organically grown and has been certified by an approved independent testing center.
