Description

This tea is grown by Taiwanese farmers in the mineral-rich, volcanic soils of Sumatra! Rock teas that embody the soft/mineral quality (real yancha) are usually expensive and hard to get. This one is under-appreciated and WELL worth your time.

Sweet, smooth, fragrant… It has an incredibly balanced profile that is universally appealing. Recommended as a daily drinker. It can be adapted to suit the seasons; it makes a smooth and mild brew in the winter, and a completely refreshing iced tea for the summer.
