Emerald is a Pi Lo Chun Chinese tea that is special to August's founder, a green tea aficionado long before starting August. At first devoted to Japanese gyokuro teas, the founder later delved deeper into Chinese green teas and found a vast range of exquisite green teas. This Pi Lo Chun has a remarkable flavor. As green teas go, it is one of the sweetest, least bitter the founder has tasted. Leaves can be reinfused 2-3 times. The 60g tin makes 17-51 cups of tea, depending on the number of infusions.
Rare leaves are uncommon single estate teas.
Like precious gems, these teas are carefully selected for their exceptional beauty and flavor. Each tea is hand picked and finished to produce the most exquisite tea experience.
The Rare Leaves Tin
The most precious tea requires the most robust protection. Rare Leaves are packed in the ultimate tea caddy: CNC milled from a solid block of aluminum. They are airtight, light tight, and recyclable. They are delivered in a sleek gift box with a magnetic closure.
