Watermelon Sugar - TEA VAULT

This blend is in the Tea Vault, and is out of regular inventory rotation.  You can still order this blend with minimum quantity 250g and a lead time of 2 weeks. Once in a while, a tea may come out of the vault for a limited time, when smaller amounts can be ordered until the tea is sold out again.

Tie Guanyin flavoured with a complimentary melon to enhance the bright floral green of the large leaves of this curled tea. The tea is also blended with apple pieces, amaranth and safflower petals. Makes a very refreshing iced tea, and also offers multiple infusions.

Blenders Notes: This tea has a natural juicy floral flavour that feels like it was meant to be paired with melon. The Oolong leaves leave no astringency and open up to fill the cup in the same hue as a watermelon rind.  The tea can be steeped 2-3 times before running out of flavour. Also, did you know, August 3rd is National Watermelon day? 

ingredients: oolong tea, apple, kiwi, amaranth, safflower, cornflowers, flavour.
