About the Tea
A blend of seasonal quality tea was specially created for the Fairmont Banff Springs taking into account its unique and invigorating mountain water. The Assam component (2nd flush June Production) gives a thick malty and full bodied character; the Kenya component (Kiambu region, January production) gives floral-like flavor and a golden coppery infusion; the Ceyton (Dimbula region, January production) gives floral-like flavor and a golden coppery infusion; the Ceylon (Dimbula region, January production) gives an airy almost piquant flavor that opens the blend; the China (Anhui Province, April production) gives a burgundy depth with light oaky notes; and the 'piece de resistance' are teas from the three delightful little tea estates in South India (Nilgri Mountains, January production) that give a superb fruity and sprightly flavor with a lovely finish. Truly one of the world's great teas!
Cost:
Castle Tea with a glass of Sparkling Wine & a Gift Tea Box ~$42 CAD per person.
