Thai Gushu Black, Spring 2019 Light Waves of florals and vegetalOne of my Taiwanese connections recently took a trip to Thailand to venture into an old growth tea forest and process some of the tea in classic Taiwanese style. The resulting tea is very unique, with a rich woodiness and briskness that reminds me of the best Indian teas! The cha qi is really beautiful and calming. This is highly recommended if only to experience a clear rendition of the unique terroir of Thailand! Limited, possibly seasonal rotation.
