Liquor
Description
Dried leaves: The tea leaves are rolled with an ancient and precise technique, resulting in beautifully fine, long and undulating needles. The satiny, amber tones of the young leaves recall precious wood; scattered amongst them are many buds shining like strands of rose gold.
Infused leaves: They express a surprisingly complex fruity score, with dominant notes of guava jam and ripe medlar.
Liquor: The cup lights up with a majestic shade of orange, as bright as a marigold. The fine down of the buds, suspended in the infusion, gives the liquor a unique satiny appearance. The heady and gourmet notes of roasted apple and apricot form a resolutely fruity score behind which a veil of lemon glaze tiptoes in the background, refreshing and unexpected. This unforgettable moment continues with an exceptional lingering in the mouth, thanks to a supple, round and silky liqueur.
