Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Hazel ★★★★★

I was skeptical about the tiny rolled pellets at first, but they open up beautifully in hot water. The flavor is smooth and slightly smoky, and one teaspoon goes a long way.

Ruby ★★★★★

The pellets unfurl into full leaves after about three minutes in hot water, which I didn't expect from something so tightly rolled. Flavor is grassy and a little smoky, and one teaspoon goes a surprisingly long way.

Lily ★★★★★

I’ve been brewing these little hand-rolled pellets for a week now, and they hold up beautifully across three infusions without turning bitter. The leaves are so tightly packed that a teaspoon goes further than any loose tea I’ve tried. Definitely my new go-to for a strong afternoon cup.
