Tea Mate - Dried Mulberry

Sourced from Suzhou, Jiangsu, where centuries-old mulberry trees thrive in the humid climate, producing deep-purple, antioxidant-rich berries with a robust, wine-like aroma.

Flavor When Paired with Tea:

Mulberry + White Tea: The rich, jammy notes of mulberries complement the sweet, floral undertones of white tea, resulting in a tea with a subtle wine-like aftertaste and a smooth, lingering finish.

Mulberry + Black Tea: The deep berry flavor of mulberries enhances the maltiness of black tea, creating a luxurious brew reminiscent of a fine fruit-infused wine—bold, warming, and comforting.

Historical Story:

During the ancient Silk Road era, mulberry trees were vital to the silk industry, and mulberries were considered an energy-boosting fruit for silk weavers. Tea merchants discovered that adding dried mulberries to black tea not only enriched the flavor but also soothed the throat. This practice quickly spread to Jiangnan tea houses, where mulberry-infused tea became a beloved specialty.
