Description

This tea is produced in Guria, Georgia. There, it undergoes oxidation while buried underground in amphoras called kvevri, which Georgians use to ferment grapes. This oxidation gives the tea unparalleled fruity aromas reminiscent of blackberry and blackcurrant.
This black tea reveals intense fruity notes alongside honeyed, woody and cocoa fragrances, supported by a smooth texture.

Grands Crus: savour the exceptional
