Green Rhubarb – Green Tea with Rhubarb – A.C. Perchs Thehandel

The Green Rhubarb is a green tea from China with rhubarb, passion fruit and rose petals, a high-quality tea in bags from A.C. Perch's Thehandel in Copenhagen.

Green tea is known for its pure taste and beautiful color. The green tea leaves are grown on plantations in many places in Southeast Asia, including China, where they are harvested and processed before being transported to Denmark. Green tea is a pure natural product and is often referred to as "the original tea". It is briefly steamed or roasted, which closes the leaf cells and preserves the fresh taste. In the A.C. Perch’s tea house, this specialty was flavored with rhubarb, passion fruit and rose petals. Perchs Green Rhubarb Tea is a green Chinese green tea with a harmonious taste of ginger and lemon. Here in pyramid bags.

Perchs Tea Green Rhubarb is packed in 25 free-flow pyramid bags, which offer enough space for the tea leaf to fully unfold and thus develop its full bouquet. The pyramid bags are made from corn starch, which does not impart any flavor to the tea, but are 100% biodegradable. To protect the tea, each tea bag is individually packaged to preserve its aroma. Both the tea bag and the small foil bag in which the bag is located are PLASTIC-FREE. This high-quality tea in bags is a good and practical alternative to loose tea on a busy day.

Recommended preparation: 80°C water temperature – 5 minutes brewing time

Green tea with rhubarb – from Copenhagen

In the 18th century, also known as Florissante, or "blooming period", tea from the East was an important commodity in Denmark. It was not uncommon for 85-90% of a ship's cargo from the Asiatic Company, based in Christianshavn, to consist of tea. The flourishing trade in tea and other goods such as porcelain from the Far East brought prosperity to the Danish capital.

To participate in this, Niels Brock Perchs opened a small tea shop on Kronprinsensgade 5 in April 1835, which he named after his third oldest son, Axel Christian Perch. His goal was to import the best teas from all over the world and offer them to his customers. The small shop and its high-quality teas quickly became a great success, and so for almost 200 years, three generations have occasionally stood behind the counter in the family business, enthusiastically selling the best tea from all over the world.

Thanks to the high quality of the exclusive teas and the serious, professional service of the tea house, Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II appointed A.C. Perch's Thehandel as royal purveyor to the court in 2002. What an honor.
