  • One Tree, Two Teas

    West Lake Longjing, a green tea—fresh, crisp, and clear.  Jiuqu Hongmei, a black tea—rich, mellow, and sweet. Both born from the same root, yet shaped by different hands.

    We build two classics around them. Longjing meets the Gimlet: its clean aroma sharpened by lime. Hongmei finds the Daiquiri: fruit acidity and a silky body drawing out its depth. No flourish—just spirits as a canvas, letting the tea speak for itself.

    One tea tree. Two possibilities.
