Our Barley Sprout tea is made with the first young barley leaves that sprout and grow against the cold valley winds of winter at the base of Jiri Mountain.
Processed by our tea master using the same traditional techniques of tea making, this herbal tea carries a fascinating aroma of steamed spinach and the delightful flavours of roasted nuts with natural sweetness.
This is a great caffeine-free substitute for green tea.
