A sweet, fruity, flowery fresh green tea blended to perfection.
What it is?
An exquisitely elegant green tea blend that offers a round and intense taste experience.
Why we love it
The lychee fruit from China - the land of the smile - brings sweet, fruity and soft, flowery notes to this fresh, tangy Sencha. It is as graceful and light as a petal. With the berry note of this delicious fruit, the blend reaches perfection. Beside the noble rose petals and the jasmine blossoms coming from far away countries, the freeze-dried strawberries are the perfect partner in this carefully balanced combination of flavors.
Where it’s from
Hangzhou, a two-hour drive southwest of Shanghai, China, is one of the main destinations in the Yangtze River Delta, a historically fertile region. The city’s crown jewel is the West Lake which is surrounded by fields of green tea, it was once the capital of the former Song Dynasty, a golden age of tea in China, where the beverage was such a cornerstone of society that nobles and scholars would hold tea parties in the hills!
How our drink hits the senses
Sitting dry in its container waiting to become your BRUU, the lychee is winning this sensation test. Take in its fragrance which offers an almost rose scent.
The floral aroma really blends beautifully with the strawberry and blossoms that flood out of the container.
The infusion process begins the softens the lychee scent, allowing the green tea to own the beverage.
The taste journey
The green tea is honoured at this point. The fruits and blossom subtly blend into the background allowing the green leaf to own the taste.
