From Yunnan province, famed for its snow-capped mountains and rice terraces, this tea is known as Dianhong or 'Tippy Yunnan' because of its beautiful golden tips.
Lively but gentle, an earthy, peppery flavour developing into a rich syrupy nectar with a hint of smokiness. The brew is an autumnal golden reddish brew, rich and comforting.
Whole leaf tea leaves can be refreshed with more hot water when ready for another cup.
Comes in a biodegradable resealable pouch.

Tea comes from one plant, the Cameliia Sinensis. In China, they have developed processing methods to create 5 different categories of tea - white, green, oolong, black and pu-erh, they contain numerous ingredients essential to our health- from vitamins and minerals, antioxidants and amino acids.
Classed as ‘tonics’, with regular drinking they increase the efficiency of our innate healing system, imparting strength, energy, endurance, and mental clarity, helping raise our general levels of health.
Emotional Health Benefits
Emotional Health Benefits
Tea contain a unique amino acid called L-Theanine that helps regulate production of mood-enhancing neurotransmitters - most notably serotonin and dopamine, promoting our soothing alpha brainwave state and a sense of calm wakefulness.
This action on our brain chemistry activates both brain hemispheres simultaneously, so that our brain is able to function more efficiently and optimally. Many meditation practices encourage this same effect.
Scientists call this "whole brain synchronization” and it centers and stills us, something the wise monks who first cultivated tea in their monasteries knew instinctively.
High Vibrational Teas
High Vibrational Teas
As the spirit medicine of choice for monks and mystics as well as the daily drink for many cultures across the world, tea has always been believed to play a significant role in bridging the gap between the magical and the mundane.The teas arrive to us expressing a very high vibration (we use the power vs force scale) and contain the pure energy of the mountains and earth where they grow. This energy is held strong through the reverence and care in crafting these teas, all by hand and we cleanse and honour them as they arrive to us.
Regularly consuming such high vibrational tea offers us a constant source of life force energy or Chi, something that is constantly depleted through all the many stresses of life, whether physical, environmental, emotional or spiritual. It is why such teas have always been considered both tonics for the body and tools to support the enlightenment journey.
