Lotus wrapped Red Tea
$23.00
meditative + ethereal
Lotus Drift — a drifting petal through still skies
This unique red tea begins in the remote mountains of Nam Giang, where wild tea trees grow at elevations above 1500 meters. Harvested by hand, the leaves carry the clarity and strength of their high-altitude origin—bold, grounding, and full of quiet energy
After harvest, the tea is wrapped in fresh lotus leaves and gently dried. As it rests, it soaks in the soft floral imprint of the lotus, allowing the two plants to mingle slowly and naturally. Crafted in small batches in Vietnam’s Bảo Lộc highlands, this process creates a tea that’s both rooted and rare
The result is a layered, meditative cup—deep and honeyed, with notes of baked fruit, soft spice, and a whisper of lotus blossom. The lotus wrapping softens the tea’s edges, offering a smooth, grounded body with a gentle floral lift
Soulful and serene, Lotus Drift is made for still mornings, reflective evenings, or whenever you want your cup to feel like a revelation
Each flower is about half an ounce (14 grams)
