This Tea packs delicately picked downy buds, supple young leaves and robust leaves right below  them, to create a uniquely tasty Black tea. 

Sourced from the Tea Mountains of  the Eastern Himalayas of Nepal, This tea originates at high altitude tea gardens in the Ilam region, ranging from 6000 ft to 6500 ft from the sea level. This heavy Black Tea with fruity notes will delight any black tea lover,  with a texture ranging from medium to thick depending on how it is brewed.  Be aware you might get hooked!

These fatty, Dark tree bark brown looking leaves smell like vanilla marble cake. When steeped to perfection, it produces a  slightly dark Caramely Brandy amber hue, with a mouth feel  of a thick syrupy texture, leaving  a maple syrup aftertaste at the finish, with an energizing body sensation .

Preparation

We believe that the tea drinking experience should be completely personal and liberating. There is no right or wrong way to brew tea. Individual taste buds are unique. Therefore, we encourage tea lovers to not necessarily  bind themselves with our methods but let their experience, contemplation and discovery be personal. After all, that is where the joy of drinking tea lies. We believe that a tea drinker should try different variations of brewing methods, amount of tea, steeping time and water temperature to come to find the perfect taste they fall in love with.
