DESCRIPTION
Exclusive to Tregothnan, this Manuka Tea has a distinctively sweet spicy flavour. Grown at Tregothnan since it was first introduced from New Zealand in the 1800s, bees feed on this pretty bush to make Manuka honey. Manuka bushes are celebrated for their antibacterial properties used both internally and externally, and are even used by nurses to dress wounds.
Manuka bushes are celebrated for their antibacterial properties used both internally and externally, and are even used by nurses to dress wounds.
The leaves are selected for a luxury caddy box and sleeve. Each box contains 14 individually sealed pouches for maximum freshness. Each pouch contains a perfectly measured quantity of loose leaf and sealed in “bush to cup” freshness into airtight foil pouches. Simply open the pouch and pour the contents into your tea infuser to brew.
For a perfect cup, use freshly boiled water, left to cool to approximately 80ºc, to avoid the loose leaf tea leaves from being scorched with overly hot water. Tregothnan recommends three to four minutes of steeping time.
