Emperor's Sword White Tea
During the early days of Imperial Tea Court, we had carried an exceptional tea from Yunnan called the Sword of the Emperor. However, over time it became difficult to source a tea that consistently met the high bar we had set for ourselves. This new tea, which we named "Emperor's Sword" as an homage to our old favorite, reminded us of just how good the original was. This tea has big, beautiful leaves covered in white down. It carries wonderful apricot notes and a long-lasting, smooth mouth-feel.
