Mangoes are a reminder that the world is fundamentally ordered for our joy and happiness.
This miraculously healthy fruit is also one of the most heavenly flavours on earth - syrupy sweetness softened by a slight, sensuous peppery complexity.
China Congou is a naturally sweet, full-flavoured black tea with rich, complex flavour. The large, wiry leaf is visually attractive and has a rich, sweet aroma when dry. It brews to produce a golden, coppery liquor in the cup. It has good colour, strength and brightness, and a distinct floral fragrance.
The flavours of Congou and Mango combine extremely successfully. This is a rather delicate, subtle brew where the Mango complements rather than overpowers the Congou, highlighting the sweet/fruity notes that are naturally present in the tea . Refreshing, calming, and sophisticated.
To brew, put one rounded tsp of Mango Leaf per person in a pot or Mug Infuser. Add fresh, boiling water. Brew for 3 mins and serve without milk.
