The honey notes in this tea come from the bites left by the green leaf hopper as the tea grows. This is only possible when the leaves are grown in a pesticide-free environment to allow the bugs to eat the leaves. The tea is processed by a skilled master, resulting in a comforting melody of honey, brown sugar, and ripe fruit. This farm can boast consistent wins in the annual tea competitions, and we are proud to be offering their teas to our customers.
