Gong Fu Tea Sampler

Five teas, five afternoons. Like flipping through a tea library one shelf at a time. This is how I'd want a friend to start. Each little sachet is one full gong fu session: four ripe teas, silky and smooth, and one raw, grassy and lively. Taste them side by side and you'll learn what you like, no guessing and no big cake sitting in the cupboard.
