Šaolinské poklady

The strawberry comes through first, then the pineapple, and the green tea base keeps it from tasting like candy. I've been drinking it iced all week and the Sencha and Gunpowder give it just enough backbone.

Eight green teas in one cup sounded like a gimmick, but the strawberry and pineapple actually come through without burying the sencha and gunpowder. I've been drinking it hot in the afternoon and it stays smooth even when I forget and let it steep too long.

The little tuo cha nugget in this blend is such a fun surprise—it steeps out bold and earthy while the fruit pieces keep things sweet on the nose. I keep coming back to it for a mug that’s never boring, even after three steepings.
