What are the disparate ways in which Aroma can be expressed and understood?

Our Classic Compostable teabags were consciously crafted for this introspective project, optimizing infusion and flavor, with a particular focus on aroma. These teabags are home compostable, designed with learnings explored in the Language of Aroma documentary and serve as the muse for tea-infused culinary and mixology creations by our prestigious five-star hotel and Michelin-star Chef collaborators.
