The story of this tea

A rare expression of Korean black tea.

Woori Cha comes from Jukro Tea House in the misty valleys of Hadong, near Mount Jiri—one of Korea’s oldest and most historically important tea-growing regions.

Tender spring leaves are hand-picked and carefully processed using a slow double-oxidation followed by an intense artisanal roast. This distinctly Korean method develops the tea’s cocoa, caramel, roasted-nut and sesame character while retaining a remarkably smooth and balanced structure.

The gardens are cultivated without chemical fertilisers or pesticides, drawing instead on generations of inherited knowledge and close attention to the land. The finished tea can be infused up to five times, revealing a different expression with every cup.
