Description

A bewitching blend of black tea with osmanthus flowers. Lingering sweet aroma and aftertaste.

In the fall, the air is clearer and the moon looks beautiful. Every fall Japanese people enjoy the traditional “moon viewing” with tea and sweets. This tea was inspired by this cultural tradition.
