In a region known for incredibly complex, epic and very expensive tea, this organically grown tea stands out for a very different reason: it's simple (humble), satisfying, and very easy to brew. The aroma in your fair cup is like a freshly empty cookie jar from your grandma's pantry.
Pro tips:
- Try this if you sometimes forget and over-steep your tea; this one, like hojicha, is very difficult to over-steep.
-If you brew kombucha at home, please try this! It may become one of your favourite, late winter brews.
