Connoisseur's Cup Tea Collection

A special treat for the tea connoisseur, this is a curated selection of rare and special harvest teas, representing some of our finest, seasonal offerings. Our current Connoisseur's Cup collection includes 1 ounce each of the following teas:Yame Gyokuro - With a mellow sweetness that softens the heart, Gyokuro is the very best of Japan's green teas. Before harvesting, the tea bushes are shaded so that the leaves develop a higher chlorophyll level and less tannin. The result is a very refined tea with dark green leaves, a sweet, mild flavor and a fresh, flowery-green aroma.Dragon Well Reserve Grade - A top-grade Dragon Well tea that is handcrafted by a tea artisan in Zhejiang Province. A meticulous pan-firing and rolling results in uniformly shaped flat, jade-green leaves with a soft aroma of fresh meadows. The taste is smooth and rounded with a hint of chestnut and a sweet finish.Monkey Picked Tie Guan Yin - Our Tie Guan Yin is completely hand-picked and handmade by the Zhang family in
