Dry tea leaves have a sweet honey aroma with perfume and confectionery notes. Floral, fruity notes appear during the infusion. The taste is very rich, soft, with notes of honey, custard, melon. No bitterness and astringency, which is often found in such tea. Very powerful and long-lasting finish. Tea evokes associations of a flower shop and a bit of a sauna.
