Though the region sits squarely in the tropics, the elevation brings cold nights, and it is in these colder months that Havakai Frost Tea is made. The tea plants grow slowly in the chill, concentrating their flavor in a way that the warmer seasons simply cannot replicate. The leaves are highly withered and only lightly oxidized, a process that preserves the tea's bright, aromatic character and produces those striking green flecks among the long, twisted brown leaves. The result is a cup that will surprise anyone who thinks of Indian black tea as exclusively bold and malty. Havakai Frost is brisk and citrusy, with a tropical fruit aroma that gives way to a drier, more grapefruit-like finish. If you enjoy the bright, floral qualities of a first flush Darjeeling, this tea offers a similar elegance from a very different corner of India.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harney \u0026 Sons Fine Teas","offers":[{"title":"Loose \/ 1 lb.

Rather than the flat cakes or bings most of our Pu-Erhs arrive in, this tea is pressed into small nests called \"tuo cha,\" each one a single serving that opens up over several infusions.

This is the same storied valley where our Scent of Mountains sencha originates, and Mist of Kawane shares that terroir while offering its own quieter expression. Where Scent of Mountains is direct and confidently green, this one is softer and more restrained. The light steaming, just thirty seconds, keeps the larger leaves intact and preserves the more volatile aromatics that a deeper steam would drive off.
