Preparation: Start by “waking up” the tea with boiling water at 100°C, rinsing it twice for 2 to 3 seconds.
Then proceed with the infusion:

• 1st infusion: 6 seconds at 90°C

• 2nd: 9 seconds

• Then add 6 seconds to each new infusion

The gradual infusion allows the earthy aromas of the tea to be extracted, which become more rounded as it steeps, revealing all their sweet and woody richness.

Tone: The color of this tea oscillates between a luminous ochre for quick infusions and a dark, deep ruby ​​hue as the aromas concentrate.

Taste: Full-bodied and assertive, this tea offers a strong personality. Notes of camphor, patchouli, damp leaves, rock, and flint intertwine opulently, leaving a long and generous earthy aftertaste.

Texture: Dense, aromatic and tannic, it coats the palate with a persistent and pleasant warmth.

Storage: Store in its original packaging, without an airtight container. Avoid large volumes and strong odors. Ideally, a ventilated space such as a bookcase is ideal.
