This premium lot represents a more meticulous execution of Osmanthus Jiuqu Hongmei. Only high-grade black tea with strong sweetness and clarity is chosen as the base, paired with fresh osmanthus picked at first bloom, when fragrance is richest and petals most tender. After harvest, flowers are hand-sorted to remove stems that may introduce bitterness — a finer screening process than regular grade.

The tea and osmanthus are layered and scent-infused over several days. With each round, flowers are renewed, allowing natural aroma to penetrate the leaf rather than sit on the surface. The result is a more persistent osmanthus note, smoother texture, and richer honey-red fruit undertone, compared to daily-grade versions.

The liquor shines amber-gold and luminous, carrying warm floral sweetness that rises softly and lingers long. A gentle plum-like fruit note anchors the fragrance, followed by a clean, silky finish. With each infusion, sweetness unfolds rather than fades — floral on the nose, mellow in the mouth, elegant in the throat.

A tea made not just to drink, but to savor —
the fleeting fragrance of autumn held still inside the leaf.
