As the legend goes, monkeys were first employed to harvest the finest tea leaves from inaccessible mountain ridges and steep cliffs. Today, this familiar term “monkey-picked tea” remains one of the oldest myths in the World of Tea and is commonly used to describe high quality teas that are painstakingly harvested from high elevated tea gardens in far-flung locations that make these teas rare and unique in the world.
Evocative of the Ancient Chinese folklore, the Golden Monkey Jasmine Tea from the TWG Tea Haute Couture Tea Collection grows in the pristine Yunnan province – the birthplace of tea in China. Endowed with beautiful silvery tips, this elegant green tea is delicately hand plucked and composed of the finest quality buds and young, tender leaves. Fresh and aromatic, enliven your senses with the intense and enchanting fragrance of sweet night-blooming jasmine with every sip.
Rich in zinc and vitamin C, enjoy the floral sweetness of this exceptional jasmine green tea at any time of the day, or simply pair this tea with a salad or seafood to accentuate the freshness of the dish.
