This tea is based by two different green tea, Green pekoe, and Gunpowder. But then it also contains small amounts of green rooibos, and accent of safflower.
This blend represents Lee Ja-sung this time, also a main character of the movie Sinsegye(New world). At the first time, I thought I really should go with Darjeeling, but sadly, that was not an option. So, I directly changed my mind to the green teas. Because I was like no, there's no such a thing as good as green tea to show his picky, complex personality.
And I mixed two different kinds of green tea, and Green rooibos together for a reason. Green pekoe, usually reminds me of the classical type of green tea, very subtle, bit picky, and oriental. On the other hand, Gunpowder makes me think bold, and powerful type of person. I think these two different type of character defines who he really is. A man filled with complexity, equally bounded by two different sides. Also, green rooibos was chosen because its statelessness. This particular tea tastes like tea, but it isn't an actual tea. Moreover, rooibos's origin is Africa, which is neither orient nor west. I wanted to describe his no-where-man kinda part through this. At last, safflower. This one looks beautiful, but has mild spicy taste. I thought these things are very alike him. Well, no one can disagree with his appearance, aren't we?
