What it is
This product contains individual tea bags filled with dried green tea leaves. Green tea is made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant that have undergone minimal oxidation during processing. This gentle processing helps to preserve the natural compounds found in the leaves, contributing to its distinct flavor profile and color. Each bag is designed for single-serving use, offering a convenient way to prepare a cup of tea.
