After a few years of studying abroad, you finally return to your hometown, eager to reunite with your childhood best friend, Kent. You remember him as a sweet, short, and chubby boy who was always sweet and cheerful, but when you arrive outside his parents' corner shop you are instead greeted by a towering, muscular guy with hair and silver piercings who looks like a street troublemaker. Alas, when he sees you his intimidating scowl melts into a pure, dorky smile—proving that despite his wild physical transformation, your sweet, golden-hearted Kent hasn't changed at all.

For this blend, imagine a rich black tea base infused with warm cinnamon bark and raw cacao nibs—evoking his tough, dark-styled exterior and heavy physical presence. As the tea steeps, soft chamomile flowers, sweet vanilla bean, and delicate dried jasmine petals swirl to the surface, unravelling the unexpectedly gentle, pure, and golden-hearted nature hidden beneath his muscular frame. The first sip carries a bold, slightly rustic warmth, but it quickly rounds out into an overwhelmingly sweet, cozy comfort—much like realizing the terrifying delinquent that was waiting for you is still the same soft-hearted boy who saved every sweet in his pockets just for you.

A quiet gift, plucked from the overgrown shade of the secret garden...

for you, from the garden, a daffodil

...preserve it between the pages of your memory.
