Description

Reminiscent of a Sugar Apple, in recent years the tea has been re-christened as Persimmon Blossom to better reflect its true flavor. Refined orchard fruit notes and a refreshing clarity of flavor akin to Asian pear, matched with the complex floral notes of wildflower honey. With a smooth and substantial mouthfeel, the flavors retain a crisp and bright fruit-forward finish that lingers for a remarkably long time. Crisp, clean, aromatic, with strong notes of Asian pear and wildflower honey.
