Green Teas Sampler Gift Set - 10 packages

A sampling of green teas that's sure to thrill a green tea lover or a person who wants to explore the delicious world of green teas! This sampler box contains 10 tasty green teas. This gift box includes: Acadia - If you happen to stumble downeast to the small town of Bar Harbor you will most likely be treated to a myriad of blueberry foods, the fruit most associated with the state. Crafting a blend for this park therefore naturally started with a blueberry base. We chose a green tea to highlight the blueberry flavor in honor of the lush greenery found in Acadia. Ultimately creating a golden cup that imparts a light, delicate infusion with a full blueberry flavor and a subtle citrus finish. China Mountain OP - From the Guizhou district in China, at an altitude of 1400-1900 feet, comes this steamed green tea. Picked between May and June, the forest-green leaves brew to a delicate green cup with a fresh vegetal aroma, and a light citral taste. China Special Snow Dragon - This delicious tea is grown in the Yunnan province of China. It brews to a light ecru cup with a mild, light, palate-pleasing sweet aftertaste resulting from the brewing of the combination of twisted gray-olive-green and slightly curled white leaves.  These brewed buds are well formed and have a fresh "after-the-rain" aroma. China Yunnan Chao Qing -From the Central Yunnan Province comes this high-quality green tea.  Chao Qing, a generic term for the process of pan-firing, is an aromatic tea that brews to a golden-brown cup with a lightly toasted taste and a touch of astringency.  Perfect for enjoying every day. Colombian Emerald Organic - A fabulous addition to our Colombian green tea offerings! This unique green tea goes through a roasting process that produces a warm, refreshing cup with fruity notes, low astringency, and a tropical, sweet flavor. Japanese Sencha - Grown in full sun, sencha leaves are harvested 3 or 4 times a year, approximately every 45 days. These long leaves produce a splendid tea with a subtle mixture of sweetness, bitterness and fresh green scent. Jasmine Chung Hao - For all jasmine aficionados, this heavenly floral tea from the Fujian province of China, is one to try! The medium sized, aromatic, tippy, dark olive-green leaves produce a light ecru cup with a strong, sweet jasmine taste. Korean Jeoncha Organic (2nd Flush) - The tea is cultivated on the Island of Jeju off the coast of South Korea. This volcanic island is semi-tropical and hosts a perfect environment in which to grow high quality teas. Jeoncha is a special organic green tea grown at the foothills of Mount Halla. These 2nd Flush, beautiful, large green leaves have a fresh picked aroma. They brew to a pale green cup with a fresh, popcorn aroma and a toasty, vegetal taste. Louisa May Alcott - Early in Little Women, while visiting a sick Laurie, Jo says that her sister Meg's blancmange is made "very nicely." Later, her own attempt turns out "lumpy" and accompanied by strawberries that were "not as ripe as they looked." Our blend follows Meg's example and is almost, as Laurie says, "too pretty to [drink]." Combining almond and strawberry flavors, this blend brews to a delicious tea that is fruity and aromatic. It manages to be both sweet and light thanks to the Chunmee green tea base and the gentle floral notes added by the rose petals. Spring Blossom - To honor the first bulbs and plants popping up through the recently frozen earth, we have created a Spring Blossom blend. This tea is made with green tea and colorful flowers with the subtle, sweet taste of passion fruit. It's beautiful to behold and absolutely lovely to drink! Enjoy a cup while you plan all your upcoming landscaping projects. Each package makes approximately 6-8 cups and is labeled with the name of the tea and brewing information for each tea.  Packaged in a lovely black gift box, lined with an elegant tissue, and sealed with a decorative label, this green tea collection is perfect for you and all your tea friends. Note: If any of these teas are out of stock we will substitute with a similar tea.
