Keemun Country Blossom | Black Tea
We're hoping to source a new lot in the future, but there is no guarantee. A cup of charms from a simpler time. Charcoal and cherry wood for strength and body, but blossoms of osmanthus sweeten the fragrance to everyone’s liking. A subtle, yet austere mineral finish. Perfect.
