SHOP THE LATEST HARVEST:
The season was a bit of a battle. Taiwan just went through its driest winter in 75 years, which caused significantly lower yields across the board.
But there is a major silver lining. When tea plants are stressed for water, they struggle to grow quickly. Instead of producing lots of large leaves, the drought forces the plants to concentrate their key nutrients, sugars, and flavorful volatile organic compounds into fewer, smaller leaves. I've been drinking these teas nonstop for the past 2 weeks, and the flavor profile on all three classics is spectacular. They are incredibly clean and intense, each with a distinct personality.
