Yellow Gold Tea Buds
Sold only in the sci-fi city-nation of Singapore, this jewel tea costs approximately USD 105.71/50 grams, which could make about 25 cups. Don’t worry, you’ll get a good return of your money because this is really made of gold! They paint the tea leaves with real gold – 24 carats – for human consumption. However, you should not be astonishingly afraid thinking that it could be detrimental to your health. A reliable source claims that it’s fine to consume a small amount of gold flakes as it is non-toxic.
To seal the rarity and uniqueness of the Yellow Gold Tea Buds, this shining, shimmering splendid tea can only be harvested in one specific mountain. And take note – it is done in just one day in a year, using golden scissors (a special one) and from the topmost portion of the tea tree only.
