{"product_id":"susurrus-osmanthus-golden-tip-sparkling-tea","title":"SUSURRUS | Osmanthus Golden Tip, Sparkling Tea","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn a category often defined by sweetness or novelty, Susurrus “Osmanthus Golden Tip” Sparkling Tea stands apart through material and method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt begins with organic, high-elevation black tea from Yunnan, selected for its clarity and depth, then traditionally scented with fresh osmanthus blossoms over multiple nights to naturally infuse the leaves with fragrance. In the glass, it glows amber-gold, animated by a fine, persistent bead that carries both aroma and texture upward with quiet precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tea itself is composed of tender golden tips, harvested at altitude where cooler air preserves aromatic intensity and structure. Osmanthus, prized for its apricot-like perfume, is layered gently into the tea through time-honored floral scenting techniques rather than extracts or added flavorings. That patience defines the character: nothing feels imposed. The fruit tones are intrinsic, lifted rather than sweetened, supported by the tea’s natural tannic line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the palate, the wine-inspired sensibility behind Susurrus becomes clear. Ripe apricot, peach skin, and soft citrus unfold in measured succession, edged by a subtle nuttiness and a faint warming spice. The bubbles refine the texture rather than amplify it, keeping the profile taut and composed. It drinks with the structure of a fine sparkling wine yet remains unmistakably tea—aromatic, textural, and enduring, a non-alcoholic expression that lingers long after the final sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The Osmanthus Golden Tip bottling features hand-harvested, organic black tea buds, naturally scented with November's opulent Osmanthus blooms. Abundantly smooth, with honied apricot notes laced with toasty peach, nutmeg, and crushed acorns, this bottling is the first kiss of autumn – honoring the ancient Chinese tradition of flower-scented teas.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sommelierschoiceawards.com\/en\/blog\/producer-profiles-3364\/the-wine-industry-veteran-who-found-her-next-act-in-sparkling-tea-1247.htm\" title=\"The Wine Industry Veteran Who Found Her Next Act in Sparkling Tea\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eLEARN MORE ABOUT THIS TEA\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/susurrusteas.com\/faqs\/-FAQs\" title=\"SUSURRUS product FAQ\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSUSURRUS product FAQ\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSusurrus Sparkling Teas are bottlings of true tea - not herbals - meaning these are teas crafted from the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ecamellia\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003esinensis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e plant.
