Description
Caravan Tea is dried over burning pine needles. This 17th century process imparts a smoky note versus traditional air-drying.
The readied tea was exported via camel, with other spices, on the Silk Road enroute to the Russian Tsars.
Drying the leaves over burning pine needles evokes notes akin to smoke-peated whisky.
The Distillation captures the rich notes of the Lapsang Souchong leaf.
The botanicals of cardamom and long pepper carefully frame the character of our Distilled Russian Caravan Tea gin with a titillating smoke note.
