Sakura — Organic Green Tea

The Essence

Sakura is a liquid homage to the wonder of Japan’s cherry blossoms—an ancient symbol of rebirth, fleeting beauty, and lightness. This blend allows you to pause time and indulge in a break, even during the most hectic days. By uniting the nobility of the most delicate tea leaves with vibrant, fruity notes, it transforms your cup into a ritual of contemplative well-being. The ideal ally to restore your senses, rediscover inner harmony, and savor the beauty of small moments with a smooth, clean, and extraordinarily fragrant sip.

Sensory Profile

• Intensity: 3/5 (delicate yet persistent).

• Bitterness: 2/5 (moderate and balanced). The herbaceous base of Chun Mee green tea and the tartness of hibiscus create a pleasant contrast with the fruity sweetness of cherry and the enveloping roundness of almond.

• Dominant Notes: Juicy and fruity (cherry, sour cherry), sweet and round (bitter almond) with a fresh, slightly tart finish (hibiscus).

• Caffeine: Present (medium-low content). Provides clean energy and moderate mental stimulation, ideal for keeping the mind active without the jitters typical of coffee.

Best Enjoyed

Perfect for mid-morning or during the afternoon for a restorative break. Thanks to the presence of hibiscus and its fruity nature, it is spectacular when cold-brewed to refresh warm summer days.

Is this blend for you?

Yes, if you...

• Are looking for a premium fruity and floral tea, far removed from the artificial flavors of industrial products.

• Want a delicate and elegant tea experience.

• Desire a versatile blend—fantastic when enjoyed hot in winter, and deeply refreshing when consumed iced in summer.

Not, if you...

• Are looking for a tea with strong roasted, smoky, or spiced notes.

• Do not enjoy the distinct flavor profile of cherry or almond.

• Prefer entirely caffeine-free herbal teas or infusions to drink late at night before bed.

Brewing Steps

Follow these steps to get the very best from your infusion:

• Quantity: Use 2,5-3 g of tea (or 2 scoops with our perfect cup tea spoon) for a 200 ml cup 2 minutes    

• Water: 60°–65°C (Pai Mu Tan white tea requires gentle temperatures to preserve its antioxidant properties and velvety taste).

• Brewing Time: 2 minutes.

Our Tip

To avoid burning the delicate leaves of this blend, never use boiling water at 100°C. If you do not have a kitchen thermometer, simply remove the water from the heat before the first bubbles begin to form.
In summer: Try it cold! Place 15 grams of Sakura in a liter of room-temperature water and let it rest in the refrigerator for 6–8 hours. You will get a deeply refreshing drink with a beautiful pink hue—thanks to the beetroot and hibiscus—that is naturally sweet without any added sugar.

Sweet Pairings

For sweet pairings, rich desserts like cherry tarts or almond biscotti mirror the tea’s vibrant sour cherry and bitter almond notes. The delicate white tea and green tea base adds a refreshing balance to the sweetness, while the tartness of hibiscus and beetroot brings a lovely contrast. For something lighter, vanilla macarons or berry cheesecake work wonderfully, showcasing the tea’s natural cherry flavors and subtle floral tones.

Savoury Pairings

On the savory side, creamy cheeses like goat cheese or Brie provide a smooth, rich contrast to the tea’s fruity and floral profile, making each sip even more satisfying. If you’re feeling adventurous, try pairing this tea with a light fruit and almond salad—featuring mixed greens, fresh fruits like berries or orange slices, and toasted almonds. The nutty and fruity flavors beautifully complement the tea, creating a memorable and unique tasting experience.
