Purple Tea is one of those teas that immediately stands apart. Made from naturally purple-toned tea leaves and crafted in a delicate white tea style it produces a light and refined cup with floral sweetness and subtle fruit notes. Its appeal goes beyond flavour. Add a little citrus and the liquor changes colour creating a beautiful moment of discovery in the cup. It is rare unusual and best enjoyed slowly.

The colour change comes from naturally occurring pigments in the tea leaves. When citrus is added the change in acidity alters the appearance of the brewed liquor and brings out a different colour. A few drops are enough to see the transformation. It is a simple addition that makes brewing Purple Tea an experience as much as a daily tea ritual.

Purple Tea has a delicate and elegant character. The cup opens with soft floral notes followed by gentle sweetness and subtle fruity nuances. Unlike a strong black tea it does not overwhelm the palate. The finish is clean and light making it an easy tea to enjoy on its own. For the best expression brew it without milk and allow the natural character of the leaf to come through.
