Elixir is a rare and refined blend that brings together two special teas: Japanese sencha green tea and Chinese Pai Mu Tan (White Peony) white tea. Both are gentle, finely flavoured teas with low tannin content — joined by cinnamon, apple and lightly roasted almond, which enrich the cup with a pleasantly delicate spice-fruit character. A truly meditative tea for afternoon moments.
Flavour Profile
A light, floral-grassy base from the sencha and Pai Mu Tan blend, complemented by the warm-sweet aroma of cinnamon and the delicate fruity freshness of apple. The lightly roasted almond stays in the background, rounding out the overall impression without overpowering the teas' gentle character.
How to Enjoy
Perfect for afternoon moments, reading, reflection, or alongside fine desserts — cheesecake, apple cake, almond biscuits. As green and white teas contain less caffeine than black tea, this blend can be enjoyed comfortably in the middle of the day. An ideal premium gift, being a rare and refined combination.
Preparation
Place 2 grams (about 1 teaspoon) of loose tea in a 200 ml cup. Pour over water at 65–75 °C (this is crucial for green and white teas — boiling water will make them bitter). Steep for 5–8 minutes. Longer steeping brings out the cinnamon and apple notes without making the tea tannins overpowering. Can be re-infused.
Ingredients
Sencha green tea, Pai Mu Tan white tea, chopped cinnamon, rolled ALMOND, apple (97.5% apples, ascorbic acid E 300), salt, natural flavouring, citric acid (E 330).
Who Is It For
Refined tea drinkers who enjoy softer, understated flavours. A wonderful choice for those curious about white tea, as a dessert companion or afternoon cup. An ideal gift for tea lovers to whom you want to show the beauty of a slightly unusual yet easy-drinking blend.
Storage
The tin preserves the delicate aromas of green and white teas as well as the scent of cinnamon. Store in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and strong-smelling foods. After opening, consume within 6 months for the best experience. Contains almond (allergen).
