Nectar 2026 ripe coin 7 gram
In honor of our hummingbird friends, we present one tea-riffic tribute - Nectar 2026. Incredibly rich 2025 Meng Song ripened leaves pressed into 7 gram coins, this tea is money!
Upon tasting the 2025 ripened leaf, we knew we had a winner. Thick body, rich flavor, a hint of dark chocolate, slightly fruity with what Sara called out as a black licorice tail end. We love this tea and reserved more of this ripe leaf than for any other pressing. The energy (cha qi) is clean and engaging, the aroma of cacao, brown sugar, earth and dried stone fruit. It’s truly a beautiful example of what a fine young ripe tea can be and we look forward to what time will bring to this one. Ya really gotta try it.
Pure, spray-free, high altitude ripe tea, sure to please.
