Wonderful as cold Infusion

Actually I‘m totally in this ice tea thing. So I did a cold Infusion with this green tea. And it tastes so delicious, it is refreshing due to the Mint and also very gentle, No bitternes at all. This tea cold infusioned is a real pleasure when it is really hot outside. Served in an elegant white wine glass it lookes like a Gelber Muskateller.

Green Tea and Mint

Any blend of green tea and mint holds great promise and high risk - especially where spearmint is concerned as so many people associate it with mouthwash!! To my suprise the packet was clear but given it's within a caddy this will not impact the life of the tea. I chose to use fresh, hot water below boiling point to bring out the sweetness. The tea itself is a light China tea sublimely blended with spearmint resulting in a clean and slightly dry aftertaste. The green tea comes through and dances with the minty notes, never being truly overwhelmed by them. This is a blend to cleanse and settle without knocking your socks off; honestly it's exactly what I was hoping for! Thanks again to @raretealady

Tasting Notes

It has a smooth, round mouth-feel and a refreshingly clean flavour. Soft and gently uplifting.

Quantity

Use 2g of tea per 150ml of water.

Temperature

For the optimum infusion use 75°C (167°F) water.

Time

Infuse for 1 - 2 minutes, tasting regularly.

Infusions

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

CHINA

Green Tea

A hand crafted Spring green tea from Zhejiang province (home to the famed Dragon Well) but pan fired with a lightness of touch to just twist the leaves rather than press them.  This delicate method produces a delicate green tea with a smooth mouth-feel and a refreshingly clean flavour.

MALAWI

Spearmint

We have added an uplifting blend of Spearmint from a collective of small holders in Malawi. This is a year-round, sustainable crop, mostly grown by women on less than a hectare of land.  It allows invaluable extra income and we are very proud to support them.
