Secret Tea Garden
The "Secret" Collection
Something really special among all the collections we proudly offer is the “Secret” Collection. This collection is made of tea leaves whose quality is exquisite but quantity is quite limited.
We usually show the information about the tea gardens or tea masters that produce tea leaves, because we value the traceability of the origins and respect for the craftsmanship, except for this collection.
The quantity of tea leaves in this collection is so limited that we should protect the identity and information about who made them and where.
This is to ensure that nobody interrupts the current procedure.The tea leaves in this collection are, of course, unavailable in the ordinary market.
This is the collection only for a true connoisseur of tea leaves who craves for a special moment.
