This tea is the result of decades of natural crossbreeding and careful cultivation. This has some similarities to our 'Purple Needle' wild Assamica, but it's entirely different.
 
This is a truly unique blend of flavors and qualities of some of our favorite teas: the perfume-like floral aroma of Phoenix oolongs, the umami comfort of roasted oolongs, the cleansing bitterness of green teas, and the sweet fruitiness of wild Assam teas (e.g. Purple Needle, purple tea).
 
It is a transportive tea experience with very high anthocyanin levels, the antioxidants regarded for their potential to offset chronic oxidative stress that impacts our nervous and cardiovascular systems. They give these buds their rich purple color that brews a wild greyish green and copper brew.
 
We hope you enjoy this tea and are excited to bring it to you.
