A natural source of antioxidants.Pure green tea The Taste... Natural, Pure & Refreshing Springtime signals the first flush of our pure green tea. As dawn breaks and the dewy mist hangs in the air, the first buds and leaves are picked to lock in the fresh green flavour. Gentle sencha steaming and pan firing brings a light, toasty flavour to the tea, for a cleaner, more refreshing taste. Once given as a precious gift in China, let this gentle tasting blend be a gift from us to you. The Ingredients... Zhejiang province China, meaning ""Crooked River"" is the home of green tea and home from home for our master blender. For over 3 centuries, we've been picking teas here, using only the bud and top two leaves, the best part of the plant. We then blend these together with the finest flushes from Asian origins for a fresher, punchier green tea. Our strong relationships and in-depth knowledge of the seasons across these origins means your always get the highest quality, handpicked tea at just the right time.
