In a bottle that asks for very little attention, one ingredient quietly does the work. Green tea has been grown on this island for generations. We did not choose it because it sounds natural. We chose it because, leaf for leaf, it earns its place.
From the hills of Pinglin
Pinglin, the tea district folded into the hills south-east of Taipei, has a humid, shaded, temperate climate, exactly what gives its tea such a high concentration of polyphenols. The leaves are dawn-plucked and pressed the same day, before oxidation dulls the actives.
- Dawn-plucked and pressed within hours.
- Grown in shade, which raises the leaf antioxidant load.
- Certified organic, verified not implied.
The quiet science of balance
For the scalp, balance means cleansing away excess oil and buildup without stripping the skin barrier. Green tea polyphenols are gently antioxidant and pair well with mild, sugar-derived cleansers instead of harsh sulphates: a low, soft lather that rinses clean and leaves the scalp calm rather than squeaky.
Bringing it into the ritual
It is quiet, dependable and kind to the scalp, which is exactly what a daily cleanse should be. Start there.
