Description

In Thailand, offerings for monks are set in front of temples: sugar, rice, fruit, fresh produce, incense, and this green tea drunk by tribal peoples from the Golden Triangle.
As the only nourishment taken in the afternoon, it is indispensable to everyday life. Popular throughout Thailand, Cha Kio is composed of ball-shaped leaves that produce a sparkling, balanced liquor with a flowery, bitter-free flavour similar to China oolongs.

A slender bridge between body and soul.
