Tasting Notes

Tasting notes

Aroma Wheel

AROMA
Pure · Floral
Gentle roasted warmth arrives first, then a clean floral note with no bitterness. Exactly what pure fragrance promises.
TASTE
Smooth · Vegetal
Silky body with a faint sweetness of roasted grain. No astringency. Each steeping deepens the character rather than diluting it.
FINISH
Long · Clean
A quiet warmth that settles without fading. The fifth steeping is still worth drinking.

The Third Tea Tradition

The Story

The Third Tea Tradition

Europe knows Japanese green tea. Europe knows Chinese green tea. Korean hand-roasted green tea is a third tradition — older in method, almost unknown outside Korea. The gamasot iron cauldron technique is four thousand years old. Leaves are fired in wood-smoke heat, turned by the master hands, dried on woven trays. Master Shin Gwang-su is one of the last practitioners. Sunhyang is his garden and this is its harvest.
