Description
This tea is produced on a family-owned plantation that was established in 2006. The plantation is dedicated to organic agriculture. "Sukui" means "gratitude" in Indonesian, paying homage to the natural world that provides us with this tea.
This well-balanced, gourmet Grand Cru develops floral and vegetal notes, as well as hints of vanilla, all against a smooth texture.
This tea is certified organic by Ecocert, an accredited independent certification body.
