Bancha

A rustic touch

[CẦN NỘI DUNG]

Introduction

Bancha offers a different direction within the Sương Trà tasting set.

Gentle and familiar in flavour, it is a tea for anyone who wants to start exploring tea in a relaxed way, nothing too fussy.

Not every tea flavour begins with young buds.

Bancha Shan Tuyết offers a different experience, using mature tea leaves rather than focusing only on the young buds more commonly seen.

Rooted in the Shan Tuyết tea of the Suối Giàng region, Bancha has a rustic, simple character, yet its flavour still has depth.

Flavour: Softly astringent, sweet finish — suited to those who want to explore a familiar tea flavour.
Liquor colour: Natural yellow; the shade changes with how it is brewed.
Characteristics: Can be steeped several times, depending on the amount of tea, the water temperature and the steeping time.
The tasting experience: Suited to slow enjoyment, noticing how the flavour changes from one steep to the next.

Bancha is a choice worth trying for those who want to learn more about the diversity of Shan Tuyết tea.
