Mi Lan Xiang
$19.00
Visit product page →Our Mi Lan Xiang is a single varietal Phoenix oolong with a distinct orchid fragrance and long lasting honey finish. A deliciously rich and complex tea with distinct stone fruit notes.
Whilst some care and attention needs to be given in brewing this tea we believe that it’s distinct fruitiness and sweetness make it very easy for many people to enjoy.
Our 2018 tea comes from the same village as our Mi Lan Xiang from last year but has been picked from tea bushes that are slightly older, over 100 years old, contributing to a well-balanced and thickness to the tea liquor.
Phoenix oolongs are traditional Chinese teas revered since the Ming Dynasty. The name applies to a group of oolongs that are grown in Feng Huang Shan (the Phoenix Mountains) of which Mi Lan Xiang is a famous cultivar.
Origin: Lizai Ping Village, Feng Huang mountain, Guangdong province, China
Flavour profile: Full Bodied | Stone Fruit | Honey
Picking standard: 2 leaves and a bud
Processing highlights: The consistency in the brown-black dry leaf shows the skill of the tea master in monitoring and controlling the level of oxidation. The oxidation level is 60-70%. Our Mi Lan Xiang has undergone a light-medium traditional charcoal roasting, repeated 3 times to finish the tea.
Harvest: 28.04.2018

Organic Hojicha - Roasted Green Tea
$14.00
Visit product page →Our Hojicha is rich and rounded with a sweet biscuity aroma reminiscent of roasted nuts and toast. Produced using first flush sencha that is slow roasted over low heat to preserve the amino acids and retain the umami flavours.
Hojicha was invented in the 1920’s when a tea merchant in Kyoto had surplus stock of green tea leaves that he did not want to waste. He roasted them in an effort to preserve them and resulted in a new style of green tea.
Origin: Yakushima Island, Kagoshima prefecture, Japan
Flavour profile: Biscuity | Toast | Roasted nuts
Processing highlights: Hojicha is processed like all other Japanese green teas, it is steamed, rolled and dried. However, at the drying stage Hojicha is subjected to a final roasting process. This roasting changes the leaf colour, taste, aroma and nutrient composition.
Harvest: Spring 2019
Cultivar: Kanayamidori
Tea Master: Watanabe family
