Quality & Sensory

Each batch is carefully collected and shade-dried to preserve the flower's soft violet-blue to dusty purple hue, delicate petal texture, and clean floral aroma. When cold-brewed, the flowers release a pale amber infusion with a light, gently sweet floral flavor and a smooth, refreshing finish; a hot infusion draws out a slightly deeper color and a rounder, more aromatic cup.
