Hunan province/China
We insist on using only natural flavouring oils, high quality tea tastes good and natural flavours do not overpower the great taste of
the high-grade tea, also natural flavours leave no aftertaste giving the tea a clean and true character. (The practice for some making flavoured
tea is to use overpowering artificial flavours, which may be an indicator of a covered up lower quality tea).
Natural flavours tend to be more delicate and subtle, most find this a refreshing change and is one of the desired qualities of our naturally flavoured teas.
A wonderfully refreshing tea that is an absolute must try for all Sencha lovers.
