ANICCA is made with Earl Grey tea, French white peach purée, and Italian bergamot juice.^[1]

Earl Grey Tea — Aromatic Base. Earl Grey forms the tea base of the blend.^[1]

French White Peach Purée — Fruit Component. The fruit component is a white peach purée of French origin, and peach carries through both the nose and the palate.^[1]

Italian Bergamot Juice — Citrus Lift. Bergamot enters as Italian bergamot juice rather than as bergamot oil, and shows on the palate as a citrusy counterpoint to the peach.^[1]

ANICCA is issued as an exclusive charity bottle sponsored by YCWH Trust, in support of Aoi Pui School, a Hong Kong special school that trains and creates employment opportunities for young adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder. According to Mindful Sparks, 100% of the sale proceeds it receives from the bottle are reinvested into ongoing training for ASD school leavers.^[1],[2]
