Good looks, impeccable taste, enduring aroma & style all its own. SerendipiTea is pleased to be the first to introduce state-side this fine leaf from Chirrepec Tea Cooperative in Coban, Guatemala (elevation approx. 4300 ft above sea level). Tea has been grown in this region since the late 19th century near sacred caves where Mayan rituals still take place. Unique, medium-bodied, smooth.

The lady knew I was a picky drinker. And she found just the right teas for my palate. It was surprising to me when she pulled out this tea from South America. You don’t find many companies that have tea from there and I had not tasted one from Guatemala before. You can tell how different the terroir is by the very first sip. The dry leaf gave me a bit of a start. It kind of smells like cherry cough medicine. cringe But also very unique is this aroma. As it steeps it switches to a cherrywood with slight milk chocolate. The liquor aroma is a wow. Baileys and different woody notes and a touch of resin. Mouthfeel: Silky soomth. Very different from the other terroirs. The flavor is maybe a cherry liquor of some sort with woody notes. The wet leaf has unique pinewood, smoked pinewood, and cherrywood notes that finish with a bit of cherry liquor.
