Dwaeji Gamja Cha

A distinctive, comforting infusion

Introduced from China to Korea during the 18th century, the Jerusalem artichoke (dwaeji-gamja) served as both a survival staple and soothing infusion in that country, enjoyed at either temperature and cherished for its sweetness and its time honoured contribution to daily wellness.

The Jerusalem artichoke flavours, with echoes of burdock and hazelnut, emerge across a velvety texture and deliver a wonderfully sweet sensation on the palate.

This tea is produced through organic farming methods and carries certification from an authorised independent testing organisation.
