Enjoy the well-balanced flavor and evolving aroma of "029 Meiryoku."
For the winter solstice, we recommend adding a refined citrus fragrance by floating yuzu peel in your tea. As the tea cools, the lingering yuzu aroma becomes more pronounced, so take your time and savor it slowly for the best experience.
While drinking this tea, let yourself relax and forget the year-end hustle and bustle.
