Description
The tea is made by roasting green tea leaves on a hot traditional stone called 'Ketsi'.

The roasting process gives the tea a dark color and intense flavor that is different from traditional green tea. The taste may resemble Japanese Hōjicha. The main difference is a slightly different roasting method and the fact that Japanese roasted tea consists mainly of tea bush stems and Georgian roasted tea consists of high-quality leaves. Georgian roasted tea is often served in special ceramic dishes that keep the tea warm for a longer time. One of the most important parts of the tea ceremony in Georgia.

Burnati tea has an intense flavor. In our opinion, it is unique and unique in taste. It can be a great alternative to coffee. Certainly for the brave and those who like expressive flavors.
