    Flavour Profile

    Appearance:

    The dry leaves are tightly rolled with a dark, rich colour, occasionally accented by golden tips. Once brewed, the leaves unfurl into long, elegant shapes, displaying a deep, amber hue in the liquor.

    Aroma:

    The aroma is immediately captivating, with prominent floral notes reminiscent of citrus blossoms, intertwined with a sweet, honey-like fragrance. There’s also a subtle undertone of malt and a hint of dried fruit, which adds complexity to the bouquet.

    Flavor:

    Upon the first sip, the tea offers a smooth, full-bodied experience. The taste is well-balanced, starting with a gentle sweetness that quickly evolves into a rich, robust profile. Notes of ripe fruits like plum and a touch of apricot are present, complemented by a malty depth that is characteristic of high-quality black teas. The floral aspects detected in the aroma carry through in the flavor, offering a lingering, slightly perfumed aftertaste.

    Mouthfeel:

    The texture is silky and smooth, coating the palate with a pleasant viscosity. The tea has a refreshing, brisk quality, leaving a clean, slightly dry finish that invites another sip.
