Best pick • solid black choice from South Korea
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.

An extremely rare Sejak (second picking of the year) Korean black tea featuring a brilliant chocolate raisin aroma coupled with a smooth sweet raisin taste with a light citrus finish and subtle background chocolate notes. A very unusual tea which is worth experimenting with both high and low water temperatures to find what works best to one's own individual tastes. Sourced direct from Dong Cheon, a co-operative of 88 small farmers with the goal of maintaining Korea's rich history of tea.
