CULTIVATION AND PROCESSING

Uncle Lin is a fourth-generation tea maker who produces our teas naturally using traditional methods and without pesticides. Uncle Lin makes special teas exclusively for us in his small tea factory. Every year, he makes us a new version that has been processed with lots of care, making these some of our favourite batches of tea.

In this version, there is a sweetness coming from the pineapples and dragon fruits that grow gracefully along the tea garden giving magic notes to this extraordinary tea.

This tea made from the four seasons cultivar is has been picked during morning daylight hours. Stems and buds can be found in this tea.
