Description

Georgian wild black tea is grown and plucked from tall tea bushes that grow wildly in the mountain forests of west Georgia, far away from civilzation and no human intecation. This type of tea can be only plucked by hand and once a year during first flush season.

Wild forests were created by old plantations from soviet uinon, that got abandoned for 30-50 years. During this time nature took over and created unique ecosystem, soil is enriched by forest and mountain water while tea plants are naturally shaded by tall trees, this conditions gives this tea unique aroma and characteristics and chemical content that are not present in other teas due to high content of pigments from natural forest shading.
