Finally... I proudly present the first of more than 10 new teas I brought back from my recent trip to Vietnam 🥰
🍊DROPS OF SUNSHINE🍊 - Wild Tangerine Black Tea
Two treasures of Vietnam in one - aromatic wild tangerine peel stuffed with black tea from ancient tea trees, resulting in a wonderfully refreshing, ember infusion with zesty citrus aroma and malty sweetness. Also a delight when enjoyed iced!

It's already time to say good-bye to the mountains again...
Beautiful view of Hà Giang town from the hill and Km 0 - starting point of the "happiness road" (national highway 4C) and symbolic start of the famous Hà Giang loop.
It was on that loop that I first got in touch with wild tea seven years ago 🥹
More tea trees and stunning scenery in Hà Giang. It's an almost mystical atmosphere up there in the mist. The trees are estimated to be around 200 years old 🍃
It might have been the last tea trees I got to see on this trip - soon it's time to go further South.
My producers went back to Hanoi today with loads of tea. But we are staying up here in the mountains for a bit longer...let's see what we find...
We had sticky rice cakes for breakfast (a bit like mochi, but less sweet) and then off to another tea maker for tasting. On the last picture you can see a container built to smoke Lapsang Souchong style black tea.
A Dao woman pruning one of the old tea trees.
My tea producers try to reduce the pruning, because it makes the trees weaker over time if done too heavily, but the local people owning the tea lands (mostly from the Dao minority) still do it because more buds will emerge 🍃
At the small tea factory. I arrived quite late and all the hand roasted tea had already been made. Still got to see some green and black tea making using machines for kill-green and drying.
Ancient shan tuyet tea trees in the misty mountains of Hà Giang...
We visited there a few days ago. Chewing fresh buds directly off the trees made me feel the power of these plants first hand 🍃
It's good to be here and to really touch what I am selling to the tea drinkers back home 🙏
Hien Minh tea house in Hanoi - best tea in the world 😉
Love white tea? Then this might be for you...
Before I head to Vietnam to find fresh leaves, I'm giving away the last few packages of last year's harvest of Morning Dew Wild White for 30% OFF 🍃💚
This one has a particularly fruity aroma, and smooth floral and sweet notes. Just a few left though... 😊
Spring fatigue? Not with this tea 🍃
