Delicious

This green tea is immeasurably better than any other green tea I have encountered. I followed the guidelines for brewing at a lower temperature and it really is worth it.

Delicious

This tea stayed wonderfully flavourful for 5 brewings (maybe more but that’s where I stopped), really enjoying it.

Gorgeous green tea

My husband visited China and came back with one box of green tea…when he finished it we began hunting to replenish this as he was completely converted. It wasn’t until he tried the Rare Tea Co’s Green Tea that we stopped our search…he is equally devoted to this one and we are now regular customers.

Infusions

You can infuse this tea at least twice. With each careful infusion, different subtleties of flavour are revealed.

22p per cup based on 2g of tea per 150ml of water and 2 infusions.

China

Anshun, Guizhou

Our phenomenal Green Whole Leaf comes from the Anshun area of Guizhou in the South West of China. The area is remote and largely unspoilt with abundant forests and cloud cover draping the mountains - making it the ideal terroir for tea.
