Emerald Leaf: Organic Jade Rouge

Camphor, stewed berries, tomato

Regular price $42

Black tea · high oxidation · unroasted

Camphor, stewed berries, tomato

The renown Taiwanese black tea, also known as Jade Rouge or Red Jade, from Sun Moon Lake is taking residence in northern country in the mountain of Pinglin. The cooler and more humid terroir produce a softer and friendlier black tea. Still juicy and bright, this tea is made with entirely organic tea leaves and certified organic by TOC of Taiwan. The infusion retains its signature berry and menthol sweetness but softer on the tannins. We take this tea on relaxing sunny mornings, matching the warm sunshine with its smiley character to kickstart the perfect day.

In support of sustainable tea production and reduce packaging waste, the Emerald Leaf collection will only be available “boxfree”. The 2 oz / 60-gram size was packaged and shipped from origin to avoid repacking.
