Details
Green tea from a single garden above Coonoor at about 1,800 metres, plucked in the frost months when the bush grows slowly and the leaf turns sweet. Two leaves and a bud, hand-plucked in the morning, withered briefly and pan-fired the same day so oxidation stops early and the liquor stays pale gold rather than turning brown.
- Single garden, frost season plucking, hand-picked
- Pan-fired within hours of plucking, not held overnight
- No jasmine, lemongrass, mint or fruit flavouring
- No added aroma, colour or filler leaf
- Whole leaf, not the broken sweepings sold as green tea dust
- Brew 2 minutes at 80 degrees C. Boiling water will make it bitter
