Description

A superb Japanese smoked tea, crafted in the foothills of majestic Mount Fuji. Extremely rare, it is produced in tiny quantities by Mister Matsumoto, heir to a 150-year-old family plantation. It is smoked for seven hours using wood from whisky casks.

A Japanese tea with powerful smoky notes, blended with peaty, woody and vanilla fragrances reminiscent of whisky. A truly unique gastronomic experience.
