Why You'll Love This Tea
Widely unknown, Korean Green Tea is one of the best-kept secrets. More akin to a Japanese green tea than a Chinese green tea in flavor profile, it has a brothy and vegetal brew that pleasantly lingers in the mouth.
Grown on the volcanic island of Jeju, this loose leaf organic green tea is infused with the salty sea breezes and fertile soil of this pristine area of the world.
Jeju is the largest island off the coast of the Korean Peninsula, and was formed entirely by volcanic eruptions. The island is still dominated by Hallasan, the largest volcano and mountain in South Korea. The volcanic soil and humid subtropical climate on the island has made it ideal for growing tea, and most of the Korean teas exported to America come from Jeju.
