Special Reserve
Our Special Reserve Tea Collection celebrates the art of tea craftsmanship, supports biodiversity, the environment & small scale tea farmers. Requiring great skill to produce, many of the teas in this collection can take a Tea Maker over 10 years to learn & by purchasing these teas you’re helping keep these traditions & unique tea varietals alive & thriving.
To maximize the taste & aroma experience of this exquisite tea:
> brew & serve it Chinese Tea Ceremony style in a medium to heavy weight porcelain teapot & cups
> sip from a thin, curved lip teacup or gaiwan (lidded teacup)
Our teaware is curated by our Tea Master & is available in-store only. We offer an unique selection of connoisseur’s teawares which are limited edition.
