Radiant & Intricate. Organic Hyson Green Tea

BLEND CHARACTER

Sourced from the historic tea lands of Anhui Province, Radiant & Intricate is a Young Hyson of notable clarity and structure. Composed of early-harvest leaves, tightly twisted and carefully fired, this is a green tea that leans into both strength and refinement with quiet confidence.

The infusion opens with a firm vegetal brightness, layered with toasted grain and a subtle resinous lift. As the liquor develops, a more intricate character emerges. Notes of pine and soft nuttiness weave through the cup, balanced by a gentle natural sweetness. The profile holds tension throughout, offering both depth and precision without excess.

This is a tea for the attentive drinker. It rewards patience, revealing its architecture slowly, one considered sip at a time.
