Mr. Kôrogi (14-times winner of the national competition in the Kamairicha category) produces every year in small quantities a competition black tea, which, similar to Darjeeling First Flush, he does not let oxidize much for a black tea.
This gives this tea an incredibly floral aroma and marzipan or almond notes, which are complemented by a strong sweetness. A very round and fragrant black tea of the extra class.
