[Media Drop] Discover Your Personali-Tea with Haflong Tea


Haflong Tea is a Singapore brand that specializes in bringing variants of high quality organic and natural teas from plantation across the world. The name Haflong Tea is the combination of Haflong Hills and the pristine tea estates of Assam. Assam is located at the foothills of the Himalayas, in the far eastern corner of India and also the place where the founder was born. 


I was glad to receive this nicely packaged media drop consisting of their limited edition Christmas blends and also an invitation to a 45 minutes masterclass with Sharmistha Sen, Managing Director of Haflong Tea. Each tea has its own unique personality and I was invited to discover my own personali-tea by taking a short quiz at https://haflongtea.com/ to find out which tea blends suits me the most. 


Here's the three different blends of tea that I received which I will also share more information in this blog post.


FOR THE PLAYFUL & ADVENTUROUS

 Kakao Kreme is the combination of organic Assam black tea with organic dark chocolate pieces. It is rich in antioxidants and is best consumed as a dessert tea. Taste really nice and smooth with a hint of chocolate.  

Brewing Temperature: 100°C
Brewing Time: Tea Cup: 2 -3 Mins / Tea Pot: 3-5 Mins
Caffeine Level:  2/3 (Medium)


 FOR THE SWEET & PROTECTIVE

Safran Des Indes is inspired by Ayurvedic rituals and created by an enthusiast tea blender. A handcrafted herbal tea that merges the rejuvenating energy of organic turmeric with hibiscus, rooibos, orange peel, and rosehips, blue corn flower, and blood orange with flavours of Orange, Vanilla, and Lemon. This was also the blend that I am matched with after taking the quiz. This blend of tea can be consumed either iced or hot and has a citrus sweet flavour. 

Brewing Temperature: 100°C
Brewing Time: Tea Cup: 2 -3 Mins / Tea Pot: 3-5 Mins
Caffeine Level:  Zero


 AN ENCHANTING SECRET

Spirito Di Vita is a unique blooming tea that was originated from China. It is White tea or Green tea with seasonal flowers and natural flavours of Jasmine or Vanilla. Fresh leaves were sewn in with the seasonal flowers and it's such a joy watching the edible flowers bloom in my glass cup. Really interesting and exquisite.  

Brewing Temperature: 80-90°C
Brewing Time: Watch the mystery unfurl in a tea pot
Caffeine Level:  1/3 (Low)


One general tip, for a full bloom, use glass/teapot that is at least 8cm. 

Big thanks for sending this over to me. I found the tea blend that suits my personality and also enjoy brewing the different tea. Do visit https://haflongtea.com/ to find out which tea blends suits u the best and don't forget to key in your email address at the end of the quiz in order to receive a S$10 off voucher.
