Infusions: 5loose leaf semi-fermented tea
It is said that Queen Elizabeth II named this tea Oriental Beauty after sampling a cup. Prepared by hand, the dark brown, slightly curled leaves (oxidised to 60-70%) show a high proportion of silvery tips, giving rise to a light orange liquor. The aroma is suggestive of fine tobacco and maple syrup, while a note of roasted cocoa is evident in the taste.
Preparation guidelines: Allow 1 tsp of the tea per 150 ml of water and another for the teapot. Use water at the temperature of 90°C, pour it over the leaves and infuse for 2-3 minutes; then strain. Suitable for 5 infusions.
A handmade tea that is oxidised to the extent of 60-70%, for which merely the bud and the first two leaves are picked.

The dark brown, slightly curled leaves show a high proportion of silvery tips, giving rise to a light orange liquor. The aroma is suggestive of fine tobacco and maple syrup, while a note of roasted cocoa is evident in the taste.
