Naughty Peach ORGANIC

Oolong is a partially oxidised leaf, the link between green and black tea.

Ingredients: peach. In the cup this reads as a soft velvety stone-fruit sweetness. The aromatic and fruit components are laid over the tea base rather than replacing it: the tea character remains dominant in the cup.

The raw material is certified organic: grown without synthetic pesticides or mineral fertilisers, with a documented supply chain from plantation to warehouse.

A medium level of caffeine — between green and black tea.

Preparation: 12–15 g per litre, 3–5 minutes, water at 90 °C. Oolong sits midway on the oxidation scale, so it needs water in the middle range too — around 90 °C. The leaf withstands several infusions; the second and third are often better than the first.

The proportions are a starting point, not a rule: adjust them by up to 20 % to suit your water and your taste.

Suitable both for the retail shelf and for a venue’s tea list: a recognisable profile, a predictable result in the cup, consistent quality from batch to batch.

Storage: in a tightly sealed opaque container, away from light, moisture and strong odours. Tea readily absorbs foreign aromas, so it should not be kept next to spices or coffee.

Packaging: sold loose, the price is given per 100 g. Alveus supplier code — 83452.

The supplier is Alveus (Germany), one of Europe’s largest tea houses. Packing and dispatch from the Verdamare warehouse.
